All relevant VCS commands should be available for files and folders in the project files view. For the project logical view, we have found serious conceptual implications of the current design that makes the availability of VCS operations on logical objects undefined and hard to implement. There is no reliable way to get files for logical objects and provide VCS status information for presentation -- without making all views care about versioning explicitly somehow. The logical view concept is intended to provide various project views fitting best to given project type, but is not suitable for combining more kinds of information in one view (e.g. logical structure + versioning info). A special versioning view fits best into this concept. Theoretically it could be available in each project under a dedicated node, but it would be probably superfluous if there is already a separate files view available. Alternatively we could also provide special VCS view tab showing files and integrating also the versioning explorer, but we believe the integration with the files view is quite sufficient. So for the first release, the project logical view will not be VCS-supported on individual objects. Just the main project and portfolio nodes will provide selected VCS actions and information. The VCS support will be integrated mainly with the files view. This limitation should be acceptable if adapting certain style of work.
