Find all locked files in TFS

tf-cli, tfs

Solution

If you have the power tools installed, it's a one-liner:

tfstatus . -r -user * | % { $_.pendingchanges } | ? { $_.islock } | select -unique serveritem

If you prefer GUIs to scripts, try TFS Sidekicks.

Problem

I would like to see all files that are locked. so far, I've only found to use tf.exe status and look for anything with '!' because they are not reported as "lock, edit" as they are in the UI. Any ideas? thanks.
