How to define change set "prerequisites"

Is there a way to mark a change set as a prerequisite of another? If two developers are working on a solution, where the code from one developer depends on the code from another being delivered first, it is very useful to have a way to prevent code from being delivered prematurely and causing build breaks. We had this capability in our last source control tool.

Thanks.

No, this is not currently supported (unless there is at least one file
that is modified by both change-sets, in which case the one
automatically becomes a prerequisite of the other).

This functionality is requested in work item 71191. Please feel free to
add a comment to indicate your interest/support.

Cheers,
Geoff
