Tip

It's important to note that the operation of several of these functions is context-specific, based on the type of source control provider you're using. For example, Commit Solution has a very different meaning between a Git repo and a Subversion (SVN) repo, and if you're working in an environment that utilizes both Git and Subversion, you had better be certain you know the difference!
