Rollback a changeset in tfs

In TFS 2012,

  1. View the history of the thing you want to rollback.
  2. Select the changeset you want to roll back.
  3. Right click on the changset and choose "Rollback".
  4. Check that the pending changes are correct (the rollback command will revert the entire changeset not just the file you selected)
  5. Check in.

In TFS 2010, you can call the tf rollback command from a visual studio command prompt, or you can install the TFS power tools and use the same process as above
