I suspect that you'd be able to use 'tf merge' from the commandline before calling my tf checkin task.
Merge doesn't have to interact with the repository I suspect, so the commandline should work just fine.

I am currently using command line, so I don't think anything complex is needed.
Given that I need to provide support for the tasks I write. Or at least try to do as best I can, we do need to think what happens in gated and shelveset builds. Or at least provide a default option to skip the task in those cases.
I don't have time until October for this, looking at my current priorities. If you want to provide a pull request, we'll be able to at least test some scenarios.
The update gated checkin is probably a good base task to start from, it has all the conditional logic already built in.
Any updates on the merge task? It would be nice to have it.
