SummaryAI, from the source post

This post introduces the availability of file-level CodeLens team indicators for C++, JavaScript, and SQL files when stored in Git repositories within Visual Studio 2015 CTP6. It details how these indicators appear between the horizontal scrollbar and zoom control, showing when a file was last changed, and enabling a 'Team Activity View' accessible by clicking the author name indicator. This view presents a graphical timeline of commits for the file, color-coded by author, with tooltips for commit details and context-aware actions via right-click. It also covers the 'Changes View' for a list of commits and the 'Work Items' indicator for associated bugs, features, and user stories. The post also mentions collapsing indicators and refresh mechanisms.
