автоматически создавать полки в Visual Studio или с помощью командной строки

Вот расширение, которое автоматически создает полку для последней версии всех ожидающих изменений в VS Marketplace.

Auto Shelve TFS для Visual Studio 2015

По умолчанию это 5-минутный интервал, вы можете установить интервал в 60 минут, чтобы удовлетворить ваши потребности.

Если вы не хотите, чтобы требовалось открывать VS и конкретное решение, то есть этот скрипт, который я написал давным-давно и до сих пор широко используется.

<#
    .DESCRIPTION
    This script will create a shelveset for each workspace it finds in the form "WorkspaceName_dddHHmm"
    (ex. 'MyWorkspace_Mon1300' for monday at 1PM/1300).  It does NOT require Visual Studio to be running.
    
    .NOTE
    The intention is to run this as a Scheduled Task periodically. I run it every hour during my usual working
    time, and an hour before and after. With the naming pattern it uses, this means I have a rolling week of 
    shelvesets that I can refer back to in case of hardware failure, mucking something up, getting work laptop
    confiscated by TSA, etc. Its also good for teams to use for sharing code or to check on the progress of 
    noobs that may not know when to ask for help
