Set Source Control Connection Dialog Box

See Also Tasks

Use this dialog box to change the reference location of the source control database/server that you are using. This connection may be interrupted from a project or solution branch on the source control server or from network troubles. You can can point the Microsoft development environment to the new location with the Change/Set Connection button.

You can also use this dialog box to tell the development environment when you are working offline ( not connected to the source control database/server). This can be intentional, from remote work on a laptop, or accidental, from a network connection breaking.
