I had to rollback a few files for a period of time and now I would like to 'reinstate' one these files.
I am doing this:
- Check out the file in question
- Get specific version (using the changeset number of the file version I want to reinstate). Both check boxes to overwrite are checked. This presents the merge conflict dialog.
- Whether I merge or take server version it brings down the correct version but undoes the checkout (from #1 above)
- Checking out the file again reverts to the most recent version
What is the best way to get the older version of the file checked in (other than select all from the previous version, check out and then do a paste?
Note: "Get latest version of item on check out" in VS options.
