Knowing this, such was the reply when I asked if I could create a feature branch so I can separate what I'm adding to the dev branch, which I want to keep separate in case there are bugs fixes that need to be made and I don't want the code for the new feature making it's way into the dev->qa release process yet.

Hey, it's their shop, their product and also their rules.
Or, as I often say, may they learn to be careful what they ask for. They might get it.

Then it's best not to argue with them and let them deal with it once it happens. Just make sure that they can't deny that this was the way they wanted to have it when they come crying.

Last project I saw them use abstract classes, and could not understand why they did not use interfaces since they did not do anything that could not be done with an interface. They even had abstract properties that were simple properties created in the derived class.

Yeah, see, the problem is, if they're not smart enough to get it in the first place, "I told you so" won't make them get it when the excrement impacts the air movement device.
Righteousness is never a catalyst for changing minds.

Very true. I would only mention it when they try to blame it on me, but then without giving in.

It seems that a lot of the white majority (they will soon only be a plurality) want to got back to the 1950's. These are the same people that thought that this country was not ready for a black president. Go back a hundred and fifty years and these are the same people that were discriminated against (Irish, Germans, etc.) because they were not proper Englishmen or did not come over on the Mayflower. Things change but things stay the same.

You Trump Haters just don't get it. He is not a politician, he is a problem solver. It is the CNN fan boys that are the stupid ones, and I mean REALLY stupid.
Trump got elected for two reasons.
First, because the Socialist/Democrats ran the only person in America, that would lose to ANYONE the Republicans would have run, down to and including Charles Manson.
Second, because The people that voted for Trump are tried of the "politicians", a bunch of self- centered, sociopaths, that are only out to line their own pockets.
The nice thing about our country, is that every 4 years we get to vote for a president. Did you vote for H.C., last election? Did you vote at all? If not, you don't have a right to complain.

What problem has he solved. He certainly is great at going bankrupt and screwing people, and looks like he will make an already bad situation for the US even worse. He is also doing a great job of alienating people, and countries. Worst president ever by a large margin.

do it the microsoft way, only have a feature branch.
and the up-sell: even fixing a bug is a feature
ms release notes often read that way (as if there was never a bug):
- they seldom say, "we fixed the broken x"
- rather, "now you can do x too," perhaps adding, "a feature not fully implemented in the last release."
Signature ready for installation. Please Reboot now.

And a whole lot of TFS is Too F***** Stupid to support local branches.  I could be wrong--egg on face time if I am--but my Google Fu did not indicate that TFS supports local branching.

TFS does, but only if you access it with Git. We're using that combination at work, and it does the job nicely.

Hah! That's an idea. I'll have to explore that a bit.

You may start here[^].
TFS has come a long way, and it's really become a great piece of software - Not only for source control, but also for managing work.

Hi Marc,
A bit confusing: what does "knowing this" refer to ?
In this case, their rules are their loss. I would attribute the fact it (evidently) bothers you to your deep commitment to your "craft:" I can only hope the recognition of that drive for excellence (and innovation !) in your work here balances out the emotional equation !
your student and friend, Bill
«... thank the gods that they have made you superior to those events which they have not placed within your own control, rendered you accountable for that only which is within you own control For what, then, have they made you responsible? For that which is alone in your own power—a right use of things as they appear.» Discourses of Epictetus Book I:12

Now I think it depends what "a lot of branches" means. Personally I prefer (try to avoid) also not to have more than 3 
It does not solve my Problem, but it answers my question
