In Microsoft Azure DevOps, now known as Azure DevOps Services, you can edit files directly within the web interface using the built-in code editor. Here’s how you can do it:
- Navigate to the Repository: Log in to your Azure DevOps account and navigate to the project that contains the repository you want to work with.
- Select the File: Once you’re in the repository, navigate to the file you want to edit.
- Edit the File: Click on the file to open it. This will open the file in the code viewer.
- Make Changes: Once the file is open, you can make changes directly in the web interface. Simply click on the lines you want to edit and start typing.
- Commit Changes: After you’ve made the necessary changes, you can commit them directly from the web interface. There should be a button or link to commit the changes, and you will typically be prompted to enter a commit message to describe the changes you’ve made.
- Create a Pull Request (Optional): If you’re working in a branch and want to merge your changes into another branch, you can create a pull request to initiate the code review process.
By following these steps, you can easily edit files in Microsoft Azure DevOps directly from the web interface. Keep in mind that you might need appropriate permissions to edit files and commit changes, depending on the repository’s settings and your role within the project.
