Notification of TFS checkin when I open a solution

Is there a way (possibly a plugin) for VS which would notify you via pop up when you open a solution, and any of the files that you currently have are out of date (i.e. you should run a get latest)?

Ideally this would also work for branches as well. For example, I branch the entire solution. Now I'm working away, but I don't want to wait until working on something for a week before I know that there were changes in the main branch. I'd rather find out when I open the solution and get to see what was changed and decide on whether or not to merge down.

There is a way for force it to get the latest code when you open a solution. It's not exactly a pop-up, but i think it's what you're asking for:

Tools -> Options -> Source Control -> Environment -> Get everything when solution or project is opened
