Q:

TFS Show Latest on Top Level Folder

I'm working with TFS for a bit now and my question is about a function in the Source Control Explorer.
A sample Folder Structure for my Project might be this:
Project/MyControllers/Controller.cs
I change something in the Controller.cs and I navigate to the folder "Project" inside my Source Control Explorer. There it says at the Column "Latest", yes. Which in my opinion isnt right, because i changed something inside the folder. When i navigate into "MyControllers" it says that my Controller.cs changed. 
Is it somehow possible to see the "No" at the "Project" level?
I dont know if its important by my Visual Studio Version is 2017.
Thanks for your help.

A:

This is the correct and excepted behave. The Latest  column is used to show the mapping status between your local file in workspace and the correspondingly server file. Which include value such as yes, no ,not download , not mapped. It will not influence either subfolder or parent directory.
Only when the name of "Project" folder has changed such as "ProjectDone" by others and checked in, it will show the Latest status of Project with "No". This is a point to point mapping status. 
And you don't have to always paying attention to the file is latest or not. In other words, you don't have to and can't make sure always working on the latest version.  When you working on a file and some others make same change during you local working. TFS will record the changes and let you solve conflicts when you perform the check in action.
Usually you just need to do a get latest of the workspace or top folder in the beginning  of the day of work on a project.
