Answer 1

I have tested installing riderRS-171.4456.199.exe (Windows), the TFS Integration plugin has been bundled with Rider and enabled VCS-TFVC successfully.

However, the command line tool is not using the tf.exe under VS.

You must have the TF command line tool installed to be able to use TFVC features. The minimum version supported by the plugin is 14.0.3. To install the tool, download the latest "TEE-CLC-14...zip" file and extract it to a known location. After extracting the files, you must accept the license agreement. To do so, open a Command Prompt/Terminal window, navigate to the extracted directory, and run tf eula. After reading the EULA, enter y enter code hereto accept it. NOTE: If you forget to do this, the plugin may fail to load with a RuntimeException.

For the tool to be detected by the plugin, you must set the location of the executable in the Settings/Preferences menu by following these instructions:

1. Go to RD Settings Version Control -TFVC

2. In the Path to tf executable text field, navigate to the location of the tf executable.

3. Click Test to test that the executable has been found and is working as expected.

4. Click Apply then OK to save and exit.

Besides, if you intend to use the tf tools from the command line, you may want to add this folder to your PATH environment variable as well.
