While SQL Source Control provides a way to view object history, it does require additional tooling to update your database to a specific version from history.
We currently have documentation on how this works here: https://documentation.red-gate.com/soc/common-tasks/update-to-a-revision-from-source-control

Auto checkout from TFS on modify of sql object. and show the object as checked out in SQL Mgt Studio
76 votesSimilar to TFS checkout suggestion, http://redgate.uservoice.com/forums/39019-sql-source-control/suggestions/802123-tfs-exclusive-checkout-svn-lock. I guess the difference here is that it is an option to do the checkout automatically.

Hi everyone. I have merged some User Voice items on this topic of “filtered” static data, as there was significant overlap. I want to share our current guidance on handling scenarios where you need to version a subset of the columns and/or rows in the table.
With SQL Source control, the best option at this point is to use a post-deployment script for this purpose.
SQL Source Control introduced pre- and post- scripts in v6.3.
A post-deployment script gives you a good amount of flexibility over exactly which rows or columns of data you want to include in your project. Example post-deployment scripts for static data are here: https://documentation.red-gate.com/soc7/common-tasks/working-with-pre-post-deployment-scripts/static-data
If you make heavy use of Static Data, we have stronger support for this in SQL Change Automation.
SQL Change Automation:
- Supports column filtered static data tables in the SCA plugin in SSMS
- Supports multiple post-deployment scripts, in case there is…

Hi – this request was closed when the ‘TFS work items’ feature was released. http://documentation.red-gate.com/display/SOC3/Committing+changes
However, we’re still hearing about this enough that I’d agree with commenter Ben: it should be reopened.
We will continue to gauge interest here on UserVoice. Please do tell us more in the comments about what you expect to be able to do with Work Items in SQL Source Control.

Thank you everyone for the suggestions and votes for this over the years.
I’d like to surface up a workaround for the “linking” problem which is mentioned in the comments. For the use case of easing pains around environment setup with a large number of databases, we have had customers find success using code based off Alessandro Alpi’s blog post: https://alessandroalpi.blog/2016/06/28/automatically-link-databases-to-red-gate-sql-source-control/
I do understand that this is a broader issue and hear that many of you also want command line or API support for the product in general.
If there are specific scenarios or workflows that would be useful to automate for you, this feedback is also very useful, and if you have details on the type of VCS you use and the workflow (such as a branching model) that it would fit in to, that would be very helpful for us to hear as well.
