Just tried to do the following using the paths relative to my setup, 

git tf clone https://nakedalm.visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection $/TfsExtensions/TfPlugable c:\temp\TfPlugable
cd C:\Users\MrHinsh\Source\Repos\TfPlugable
git remote add tfplugable-tfvc-branch c:\temp\TfPlugable
git pull tfplugable-tfvc-branch master --deep
git checkin

when I use the tag --deep, it says "error: unknown option 'deep'

Method applied using the following blog post.

  • `--deep` is default for pull... I suspect it should have been `git tf clone --deep`, see: https://gittf.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Clone&referringTitle=Home – jessehouwing Jul 16 '15 at 19:03
  • So, are you suggesting the steps of the process are incorrect? If applying what's in that link, then the '--deep' should've been used on the first step. But, wouldn't this produce different results? Need to know before doing the clone again since it isn't exactly a quick process. – BossHogg Jul 16 '15 at 19:12
  • Yes, I very much suspect that the sequence should be just `git clone --deep https://nakedalm.visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection $/TfsExtensions/TfPlugable c:\temp\TfPlugable` and that should be enough. I suspect that `git tf` was updated since 2012. – jessehouwing Jul 16 '15 at 19:32
  • Perhaps you will have more luck with a still active software [git-tfs](https://github.com/git-tfs/git-tfs/blob/master/doc/usecases/migrate_tfs_to_git.md) – Philippe Jul 16 '15 at 21:06
  • @jessehouwing I'm in the process of running your suggestion now. – BossHogg Jul 16 '15 at 21:41
  • @jessehouwing that seems to work, but for the life of me, i can't figure out how to get this mess checked in. – BossHogg Jul 17 '15 at 15:52

    To a Git Repository on TFS? `Git remote add TFS-Git http://uri-to-your-remote-git-repo` followed by `git push master TFS-Git/master --all` should do the trick... – jessehouwing Jul 17 '15 at 15:57
  • All seems to be working well...Going to try using Chocolatey instead. – BossHogg Jul 24 '15 at 14:56
