This would seem to suggest that this is a direct consequence of directory-space branching. I think I have a bit of reading to do, and my first step will be to check out the Pragmatic Programmers book on Subversion (I'm assuming such a thing is available). The lessons from that should be in part applicable to TFS. Hi Imran,

The only workaround to do a "rollback" in the branch is to manually copy the original version from the main branch (copy paste the code) and then work on it. Not sure if there is any "right click" way of doing this. I think this is a serious limitation of TFS and hope they will change it in the next version. This is exactly what we are suffering.
