As you probably have noticed I have been detailing my NAV TechDays starting with branch and merge strategies. Meanwhile “TFS brother in arms” Soren Klemmensen has taken off with how-to videos. Very instructive! Click on the image to go to Soren’s blog. Soren has already created two videos: Using NAV with…
Reading my posts NAV ALM with Team Foundation Server | Branch Strategy and NAV ALM with Team Foundation Server | Merge Strategy you probably have been thinking: “Thanks and well done Luc, but doesn’t sound like NAV specific.”You’re totally right!
