New Features¶

Added support for newer versions of Azure DevOps Server / Team Foundation Server.

RBTools can now work with modern versions of tf.exe from Visual Studio, making it easy to post your changes without maintaining multiple copies of TFVC.

See the Azure DevOps / Team Foundation Server Configuration documentation for more information.
Renamed our Cliosoft SOS support to Keysight SOS.

Cliosoft SOS was purchased by Keysight, and is now Keysight SOS. RBTools now documents this as Keysight SOS and lists it in the list of supported repository types.

See Using RBTools With Keysight SOS to learn more about using Keysight SOS.
