I use the code reformatting tool in ReSharper to get some standard format on my code, but I don't like that it moves methods around.
For instance if I rename a method, and then reformat, the method is moved. This makes merging changes between branches a nightmare.
Is there any setting I have missed that will disable this particular part of the reformatting?
Set up a custom R# profile
Click Resharper > Tools > Code Cleanup
Then choose "Edit profiles", add a new profile, deselect what you don't want and save it.
Run this profile in the future
You should modify the Type Members Layout xml for that. In that file you have several patterns which you can reorder or delete to get the behaviour you want. All the changes you make in that file will be reflected in the following file:
C:\Documents and Settings\user\Program Data\JetBrains\ReSharper\v4.5\vs8.0\UserSettings.xml
so you can make a backup before playing with it or add it to your source code tree.

Is there a file somewhere that I can use to do massive changes to the context menu in an easier fashion?
The GUI:
gives me no way to move a command from one menu to another, nor does it let me see what the command actually is (in order to add that same exact command to another menu), thus I don't have much to work with.
And thus I am seeking a file (or a gigantic registry key? ugh.) that I can edit somewhere else where I have more powerful tools. (my VS version is Enterprise 2017 if that matters)
You can find the defaults at C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Enterprise\Common7\IDE\Profiles, with a general settings and some language-specific overrides. There's an additional override in IDE\VC\Profiles as well.
In my case, I wanted to move 'Start new instance" on a Project into the top-level context menu. So I:
Made a copy of CurrentSettings.vssettings
Added a new command where I wanted it (via the Tools > Customize... GUI)
Found the command I wanted to clone and moved it up one
Closed VS (it saves on exit)
Compared the two files to find the diffs (use your favorite tool.) You'll find them under Category[#name="Environment_CommandBars"]\CommandBars\UserCustomizations as add remove and modify entries
Took the Cmd attribute from the moved entry and pasted it over the added one (it was Cmd="{1496A755-94DE-11D0-8C3F-00C04FC2AAE2}:00000164" for me, to save interested parties a few steps)
Undid the move to retain only the added entry
I wasn't able to find a command entry for this anywhere in the defaults, so had to figure it out the hard way.
As per the tags, I'm using VS2013 and TFS2013.
There are multiple projects in the solution: Model, Presenter, View, etc. All other projects are working as expected in terms of source control operations.
Problems with the Model project:
Adding a new file via Solution Explorer isn't automatically detected as a pending change
Deleting a file isn't detected either
Other source control operations work fine for the Model project, such as:
Get latest version
Edit detection for existing files (including changes to the csproj
file when a new file is added)
Checking in pending changes
The csproj file would show up in pending changes with the newly added file listed in it, but the new file itself isn't showing up, therefore causing build errors on other developers' machines if only the csproj changes are checked in.
The workaround is to find the added file in solution explorer and Add via context menu, this will make it appear as a pending change. But this process should be automatic as per the other projects.
Noticed that there is no .vspscc file for the Model project while other projects have one each.
Any help appreciated. Thanks.
I would unbind and rebind the problem project and try again:
To unbind a solution or project from source control
In Visual Studio, open Solution Explorer and select a solution or
project to unbind.
On the File menu, click Source Control, then Change Source Control.
In the Change Source Control dialog box, click Unbind.
To bind a solution or project to source control
In Visual Studio, open Solution Explorer and select a solution or project to bind.
On the File menu, click Source Control, then Change Source Control.
In the Change Source Control dialog box, click Bind.
Select the database and location to which to bind, and click OK.
Click OK.
You might need to go to Advanced to find the Change Source Control option
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/0eh3790h%28v=vs.90%29.aspx
Before unbinding and binding your solution try his:
Go to Source Control Explorer
Click the "Add Items to Folder" (the
one on the left of the red cross)
Select the items you want to Add and follow the instructions on screen
That's all
Click <Detected: x add(s), x delete(s)> : in the source control explorer then select the file to add
For years I've been relying on 'Detected Adds' to add missing files - which was never a sustainable solution but I've just about managed with it.
But now if broke.
I'm actually about to reinstall Windows but in the meantime one of the best ways I've found to get a sense on what's missing (and it's still working even though the detected adds isn't) is the recursive 'Compare' window.
You can add files from here too.
It's a little klunky but it gives me a good sense of security and shows file diffs if you want to see what may have changes.
I have created several user-defined build settings in Xcode 4.3.1. I no longer need these settings and want to delete them, but there doesn't seem to be a way to delete them!
I am aware that these are stored in the project settings (project.pbxproj) file located within the xcodeproj file. But I don't want to edit these in a text editor as there are all sorts of repetitions and guids which I don't understand.
Any suggestions on how I can do this within Xcode? (or have they forgotten to add a "delete" button)
Just figured this out myself: you need to make sure you're at the right scope to be able to delete the setting. If you defined the setting at the project scope, no amount of key-bashing will remove it if you're looking at the target-scope. Remember, targets inherit settings from project scope. That last bit is what I tripped over :)
Try selecting a user-defined setting that you created then hit "Delete" button on your keyboard. That works for me when I encountered the same problem.
On Xcode 6:
Select the row and hit Fn + Delete.
Follow the steps below:
Select Project
Tap on the Info tab
Select Configurations
Select Configuration to remove
Press the Delete button on the keyboard
Removing User-Defined build settings depends on where those settings have been created.
Lets assume that you've created one already and named it as PROJECT_SETTING. In order to check your PROJECT related User-Defined settings, you have to select your project first on the project and targets list, then you should see something like this:
Here you can see only PROJECT related settings, and here you have the
only ability edit/delete PROJECT_SETTING.
Besides that if you set up a TARGET, so can add new User-Defined settings there, that only affects that TARGET scope.
You can edit/delete TARGET_SETTING_1 and TARGET_SETTING_2 here, but
PROJECT_SETTING is read-only, as it is inherited from your
PROJECT settings.
Here you will notice that your TARGET contains your PROJECT User-Defined settings and also your TARGET related User-Defined settings marked as bold letters. This helps you to know which setting can be edited on this level.
You won't be able to delete your settings here if that was created under PROJECT scope, and also editing a PROJECT related User-Defined settings will result a newly created settings that affects only the selected TARGET.
Also if you prefer more visibility on Build Settings, you can select Levels view instead of Combined view, so you should see it more separated:
Select one of them and press keyboard's delete button.
There's a caveat to these answers: If you're using a Build Configuration File (.xcconfig) it doesn't seem possible to delete the user-defined settings generated from these files directly on either the project or target level in the "Build Settings" GUI. You'll have to delete the flag and its value from the configuration file and rebuild the project. If you're using multiple build configuration files that use the same flag, you'll have to delete them from each file.
Although settings that come from these configuration files are displayed in the User Defined build settings section (just like any other user-defined flag that one would create from the GUI), they are not written to the .xcodeproj file like the settings that one adds from the GUI are (which probably prevents them from being able to be deleted from the GUI). They are also not displayed in bold text like these GUI-added settings are.
When I make edits to file, TortoiseSVN will show an indication on the folder that file belongs to that there are changes pending to child items. AnkhSVN only shows (red tick) changes to a project when files are added/removed (because the actual content of the project file in this case has changed)
Can you make ankh give any indication at the project level that child items have been edited?
Unfortunately, no. Ankh only shows an indication on modified files, whereas TortoiseSVN can traverse folders recursively and mark those with changed files within them.
If you desperately need this feature, you can try out VisualSVN plugin. It tries to mimic TortoiseSVN behaviour as close as possible. In fact, it uses TSVN dialogs for operations such as Commit or Update, for instance. When you modify a file within a project, it highlights the file, the project this file belongs to, as well as the solution node in the Solution Explorer.
Unfortunately, it's not free (US $49 per seat), but IMO it is worth its price.
The recommended way to see what changed globally in AnkhSVN is the 'Pending Changes' toolwindow. This shows you all interesting files in a single view and allows you to operate on them easily.
You can open the toolwindow via View->Pending Changes.
Try this:
Right Click the File -> Subversion -> Lock
This places a lock on the file so that others cannot edit it.
When you commit, it should unlock the file.
If it does not, Follow the same steps and select Unlock.
Edit: I use AnkhSVN for my svn but it's just me that uses it. If a corporate environment I mainly use TFS which does the same thing (lock/unlock) but it does not allow others to check out.
Code Cleanup option isn't available in .Designer files. Is there any option to enable this feature?
Remove the *.Designer.cs and/or *Designer.vb option from the Generated file masks area in ReSharper > Options > Code Inspection > Generated Code.
Be careful with cleaning them up, though, as in some cases doing so might render the code uncompilable.
Why do you need this, you are often examining code withing .designer files? I believe the main reason is the fact that these file are regenerated every time you make change and save the control, page etc.
