After a brief hiatus, I started coding again and developing with Visual Studio 2015 Professional. Came across the following new commands (at least new to me) that I wanted to share:
Pending Changes Filter (Ctrl+[, P)
I wanted to create a summary of my changes and was hoping it allows me to filter only those files that are changed/added. Sure enough, there is such an option. Right next to the Home icon in the Solution Explorer panel you see a Clock icon with the tooltip "Pending Changes Filter" as shown below. It did exactly what I needed.
Open Files Filter (Ctrl+[, O)

Sync with Active Document (Ctrl+[, S)
I remember having to hunt down this setting in the Options menu to sync the current file open with the item in Solution Explorer, but having it always sync gets in the way too. So instead of having it always sync, but when you need it is really useful.
Preview Selected Items

I do not remember seeing these options in earlier versions of Visual Studio, so very happy to find these in VS2015.
Have Fun Coding!
