How to open CodeMerge in separate window/process from VS for TFS integration

Post by byggwir » Thu 07 Feb 2013 10:45

How can I configure TFS integration to make CodeMerge open in a separate window?
Like with CodeCompareGui?
Removing /W or /SC: does not help.

Thanks

Specify command line argument /environment=standalone in TFS integration settings

Thanks for the fast answer.

If I do this then I am unable to get the merge conflict accepted by VS if I don't explicitly make changes to the results pane and save it.
Not changing anything (because I am happy with the results file) and closing then VS says the merge was cancelled.
See a similar situation in one of my other posts.
thanks.
