Questions tagged [git-tfs]

Git-Tfs is a Windows open sourced two-way bridge between TFS(TFVC) and git, similar to git-svn.

Git-tfs is a command-line based source control bridge that allows you to work with Git locally, reducing the number of operations to communicate with the TFS source control server to exactly three operations: Clone, Checkin and Fetch (or Pull).

Major features

  • Clone a TFVC repository in a git repository
  • Syncing new changesets/commits (fetch, pull and rcheckin)
  • TFS branch support with merge support
  • Shelveset support
  • Workitems support
  • Migrate from TFVC to Git

Deleting a TFS branch using git-tfs
