How to have two repository paths mapped to one local path in TFS 2010


hi,
i facing big problem in tfs 2010, can me out if possible.

scenario:
1. have 2 branches of code in tfs 2010 such enhancement , support
2. of developers work on enhancement support.
3. now, want create 2 different work spaces , map 1 local folder have our virtual directories mapped local folder , dll registered location.
however, tfs not allow this!! alternative? also
mapping 2 different local folders occupy more spaces on each individual developer's machine. 
regards,
chandan

hello chandan,

i sorry can’t map 2 workspaces on 1 local folder, or subfolder of 1 working folder. in tfs version control, system keeps track of version of file have @ given location on disk in workspace.  if same local path in 2 different workspaces, results confusing. 

for scenario, consider structuring local folder structure following?

d:\localworkspace\

d:\localworkspace\virtual directories& dlls

d:\localworkspace\enhancement (map tfs server)

d:\localworkspace\support (map tfs server)

with above method, can have both enhancement , support branch workspaces in same d:\localworkspace\ folder.

thanks.
