How to: Enable and Disable Check-in Policies
Administrators of Team Foundation source control can add check-in policy requirements. These check-in policies require the user to take actions when they conduct a check-in to source control; for example a user can be required to associate a work item with a changeset. For more information, see How to: Add Check-in Policies. Prior to enabling or disabling check-in policies, you must first create a check-in policy.
