New features in Git Integration, .NET Productivity, Web Tools, and Xamarin are releasing in Visual Studio 2019 v16.8 Preview 2. Each of our teams continue to work hard to delight our developers. For this reason, Preview releases are some of the most exciting for us as we wait to hear how our newest features impact your work.
From my perspective, one of the greatest aspects of shipping releases is how engaged you are in the improvement of our products. If you have any suggestions or run into any challenges using these features, please visit our Developer Community to let us hear your perspective. If you want greater details of what’s in this release, please see our release notes.
New Features in this Release
Git Integration
Some repositories have more than one solution in them. Now when you open such a repository, the Solution Explorer will display a list of solutions for you to select. By default, folder view is always present at the top. This opens the root folder of the repository. Double clicking on a solution in this list will take you to that solution. Also, you can use the Switch Views button in the Solution Explorer toolbar to take you back to the list of views to easily move between solutions in your repository.

In the case you have only one solution in your repository, Visual Studio will load solution view by default. On the other hand, if you have no solutions in your repository, Visual Studio will open folder view by default. You can toggle this feature on/off using its own Preview Feature checkbox in Tools | Options.

Visual Studio 2019 v16.7 Preview 2 Available Today!
C++ Updates
Visual Studio v16.7 Preview 2 delivers various improvements in the C++ space. Within the Connection Manager, you’re now able to edit remote SSH connections, e.g. if the IP address of your target system changes and needs to be updated. You’re also able to set default remote connections to be consumed via **${defaultRemoteMachineName} **in CMakeSettings.json and launch.vs.json.
When you edit a remote connection, Visual Studio will no longer need to recopy headers to Windows for a native IntelliSense experience. Likewise, setting default remote connections is useful for checking CMakeSettings.json and launch.vs.json into source control with no user or machine-specific information. These remote connections over SSH allow you to build and debug your C++ projects on a remote Linux system directly from Visual Studio.
C++ Add or Remove SSH Connections with Connection Manager
This release also brings enhanced IntelliSense support for Clang on Windows (clang-cl) in Visual Studio. The clang include path now includes the clang libraries, we’ve improved the display of in-editor squiggles (particularly when using the std library), and we’ve added support for C++2a is supported in clang mode.
The Preview release also contains four new code analysis rules to incorporate additional safety features into C++: C26817, C26818, C26819, and C26820. Please see the C++ Team Blog for more info.
In addition, new C++20 Standard Library features have been implemented. A detailed list is provided in the STL Changelog on GitHub.
.NET Productivity
Quick Info now displays the diagnostic ID along with a help link where you can easily navigate to our documentation to learn more about warnings and errors in your code.

Git Productivity
We continue to release more Git functionality in Visual Studio 2019. This time we focus on merge conflict resolution. We’ve revamped the Visual Studio merge editor by decoupling it from TFVC and focusing it on Git.
A new gold info bar at the top of a file will tell you when there are merge conflicts that need to be manually resolved. Clicking will take you to the merge editor, which now has more informative tiles and captions to help you distinguish between the conflicting branches. We’ve reduced the clutter around the zoom margin, health margin, and the toolbar. In addition, it is easier to parse conflicts with aligned matching lines, word level differences, and visible whitespace when it is the only difference. You can turn off non-conflicting differences to just focus on the conflicts. You can also resolve add/add conflicts at the file level now with a two-way merge. Finally, we have added a checkbox to resolve all conflicts on one side or the other with a single click.
Try the new features by toggling the Preview Feature for New Git user experience in Tools > Options.
Improved Git Functionality in Visual Studio 2019 under the Tools Menu
In other Git improvements, we will now close any open folders or solutions before starting a new clone operation, so that Visual Studio can open the newly cloned repo to help you get to your code faster. We’ve improved upon the commit text box, adding inline error checking. And we’ve added UI to help you more clearly understand what is happening when you initialize and push a repository to a remote host like GitHub or Azure Repos.
Local Process with Kubernetes
Local Process with Kubernetes allows you to write, test and debug your .NET code on your development workstation while connected to your Kubernetes cluster with the rest of your application or services. By connecting your development workstation to your cluster, you eliminate the need to manually run and configure dependent services on your development machine. Environment variables, connection strings and volumes from the cluster are available to your microservice code running locally.
For more information on Local Process with Kubernetes, we have detailed it out in our team blog.

Visual Studio 2019 v16.7 and v16.8 Preview 1 Release Today!
Today we are excited to announce the release of Visual Studio 2019 version 16.7 and Visual Studio 2019 version 16.8 Preview 1. Each of these releases have features we have been working hard to deliver. Install version 16.7 to start using our highlight improvements. Included in this list are Git integration including a new merge editor and easy conflict resolution, WPF design-time data, C++ support for 64-bit projects and debug builds, and additional IntelliSense functionality. In addition, Visual Studio 2019 v16.7 is our next long-term servicing release. In conjunction, we are releasing Visual Studio 2019 v16.8 Preview 1 which you can install from our download site. Our Preview version brings you pre-release functionality of the Git Repository window for easier navigation and more uses for the Quick Actions and Refactoring menu. We’ve provided additional highlights of what’s new below, yet additional information can be found in our release notes.
As always, we love to hear your feedback. Developer Community is the best venue to share your experiences so we can continue to learn how these features impact your work, both positively and negatively. Through this portal, we can have more in-depth conversation around future features.
New in Visual Studio 2019 v16.7
Git Integration
For this release, if you haven’t tried the new Git user experience yet, you can turn it on from the Preview Features pane of Tools > Options.
We’ve revamped the Visual Studio merge editor by decoupling it from Team Foundation Version Control and focusing it on Git. A new gold info bar at the top of a file will tell you when there are merge conflicts needing manual resolution.
Clicking will take you to the merge editor. Based on your feedback, we’ve modified the titles and captions, clearly indicating incoming and current branch names. This helps distinguish between conflicting branches. In addition, we’ve reduced the clutter around the zoom margin, health margin, and the toolbar. Now, it is easier to parse conflicts with aligned matching lines, word level differences, and visible whitespace when that is the only difference. You can turn off non-conflicting differences to just focus on the conflicts. You can also resolve add/add conflicts at the file level now with a two-way merge.
Git Conflict Resolution
We have also added a checkbox to resolve all conflicts on one side or the other with a single click.
Git Repository Window
To give you a complete full-screen experience to focus on dedicated Git activities, we built the new Git Repository window. From here you can view and manage all the local, remote, and upstream branches in your repository. You can also switch between branches and view the history graph of each branch. Double clicking on a commit will give you more details about it.

XAML Tools WPF/UWP
Coming from our WPF and UWP tooling team are a few important improvements.
Design-time Data
First of all, comes design-time data. Before this feature improvement, when adding new controls that are empty or working with controls that get populated with data via data binding at run time, it was hard to see how the end result would look during the design-time experience. That would get especially inconvenient if data binding or the data source didn’t yet exist. We wanted to give you a way to see your controls filled with data during the design-time development. That’s why we are introducing a new feature called design-time data. Now, for each XAML property for built-in controls, you can easily set a value visible only in the designer and not compiled into your binaries. To use this functionality, simply put a d: in front of the property you want to mock, and the designer will do the rest.

New Features in Visual Studio 2019 v16.8 Preview 3.1
In conjunction with Ignite 2020, we are releasing Visual Studio 2019 v16.8 Preview 3.1. Our events always bring an excitement to our team as we launch new functionality to our product. In this release, we are giving you access to improvements in Git Integration, C++20 conformance, .NET Productivity, Web Tools, and XAML . We can’t wait to hear how these features impact your work for the better. Equally, we love to hear how we can strive for constant improvement through our Developer Community.
While taking in one of our free Ignite 2020 sessions, why not download our latest Preview release and give some of these new features a try?
Install Visual Studio 2019 v16.8 Preview 3.1
GitHub Codespaces for Visual Studio
GitHub Codespaces for Visual Studio is now available as a limited beta in Visual Studio 2019 Preview 3.1. This gives you an instant cloud development environment that lets you code from anywhere. You can use the features you love from Visual Studio 2019 in a codespace to develop, test, and deploy modern apps including ASP.NET Core web apps, .NET Core, CMake, and C++ console / library apps. GitHub Codespaces for Visual Studio is available to a subset of GitHub users that sign-up while in limited beta. Over time, more users will get access based on availability and sign up date.

Create GitHub Codespaces from Visual Studio 2019
On a local machine, Visual Studio competes with other apps for resources with limits in CPU and disk space. With Codespaces, many of the CPU intensive operations like loading the solution, building, and debugging are offloaded to the cloud. This allows you to work on enterprise scale application without impacting your local machine’s resources. This also allowed us to dramatically reduce what we install locally when you’re building apps in a Codespace. Installing Visual Studio to connect to GitHub Codespaces takes minutes.
