EXAMPLES

Example 1

Update-VSTeamIteration -ProjectName Demo -Name "NewIterationName" -Path "MyIteration/Path"

This command updates an iteration with the specified path to the name NewIterationName (which will change the path) in the Demo project. Additionally, because no dates are specified, if any dates did previously exist, they would be "unset."
