Is there a tool for TFS that quickly scans the author of a single line code?

Question

I work with a team and must read to understand their codes. I want to know the author of a specific line of code, but at the moment I'm not sure how to do it quickly, except that I need to look through the history for this - which is very time consuming.

Do you have an addon / advice for me? Thank.

Answer 1

In the Solution Explorer, locate the file, then right-click Annotate.

Refer to the MSDN documentation for the command.

The command will go through the history of the file and show who changed which line and when in the sidebar.
