Grant Holliday has already linked to the post by Brain Harry introducing the new version of the Team Foundation Server Power Toys. The most interesting new feature (I thought) was the new plug-in for Visual Studio which allows you to see who wrote each individual line of code.
This is a useful new feature which will allow developers to keep track of where that code came from without having to do a whole bunch of merges to “triangulate” the developer.

We use this in Subversion, it’s called the “blame” tool
It’s really useful when doing a merge, as you descibed.
I thought this sounded familiar … oh, that’s right, I use it on any file by selecting “TortoiseSVN” then “Blame” from the context menu in explorer. :p
Tatham/Mark,
Yeah yeah, you have shell integration, yada yada yada
