Summary
Introduced the concept of 'Environments' in 'Team Explorer' for Visual Studio 2015 Preview, differentiating between 'My Environments' and 'Team Environments'. Enabled sharing of deployment templates by checking them into source control and creating 'Environment Definitions' from these templates, allowing team members to create identical environments for consistent deployment configurations.
