I have a Project, let's call it "WebFormsProject". I work and work and work, then I add source control and commit to my local repository.

I then connect to a remote repository and push my files to Visual Studio Online.

Now I have an upstream Master Branch that I can sync my local repository up with. Now I wan to bring another developer in on the project, I add them to the project in Visual Studio online.We go to his machine and we clone the repository.

Now, when I click on Solutions Tab, Solutions is empty.....

How do I create a Solution for this cloned repository. Just like I have on my machine?

Lets Recap, I have a Solution on my machine as well as a local repo I commit to, I have a remote repository I can sync up with. My partner has cloned my repo and now has only a local repository. How does he get a solution to start working with?

If you have versioned the .sln file, your partner should only have to double-click on it to open his Visual Studio and start working on the same project.

But make sure to modify that .sln as described in "Visual Studio keeps changing project.sln file" in order to avoid modification to the ProjectGuid element each time someone is opening said solution.
