Deleted item not in fortress client

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is a bug, or as intended. I have deleted a file using vs 2008 with the beta fortress client (1.1). The file is deleted from disk and can no longer been seen in the fortress client. I still wanted to review the history (to see a method the deleted item had) but was only able to via the web client.

I can understand why this occurs, but I haven't committed the delete change yet either, so I did expect to be able to view the file history somehow.

Thanks
Andy

You're right about the cause and impact of this behavior. It is always possible to undo the delete in the Fortress client's pending change set, which should restore the original file to its previous location.

Right, I figured that. In this case though I don't want to undo the delete, I'm going to keep it deleted.. just wanted to view the now deleted version to copy and paste a method to another file.
