* trace output will surface the original branch name of the renamed branch we are init/creating.
* stdout will only surface the changeset number.
* it would be nice to pass more detailed information back from the call to find the root changeset, a richer object than just an int ChangesetId, so that the consumer with access to stdout can surface that as a possible suggestion to the end-user.
Compiled for TFS Server 2008, 2010, 2012 and tested with TFS Server 2010, 2012
!! This command need that the clone of the TFS repository was made from the trunk (and not on the whole repository) and with history (not a quick-clone).
Usage for TFS 2010 and 2012 :
-------------------------------
* to clone one branch
git tfs init-branch $/Repository/path <git-branch-name-wished>
ex :
git tfs init-branch $/Repository/ProjectBranch
git tfs init-branch $/Repository/ProjectBranch myNewBranch
* to clone all branches
git tfs init-branch --all
Usage for TFS 2008 :
---------------------
* to clone one branch
git tfs init-branch--parent-branch=$/Repository/ProjectParentBranch $/Repository/path <git-branch-name-wished>
ex :
git tfs init-branch --parent-branch=$/Repository/ProjectParentBranch $/Repository/ProjectBranch
git tfs init-branch --parent-branch=$/Repository/ProjectParentBranch $/Repository/ProjectBranch myNewBranch
