## Introduction
git-tfs is a two-way bridge between TFS and git, similar to git-svn.
## Usage
`git tfs help` lists the available commands.
`git tfs help <command>` shows a summary of the usage of a given command.
Further documentation is available in the [doc/](doc/README.md) directory.
### Cloning a repository
git tfs clone http://tfs:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection $/some_project
(wait for git-tfs to pull your history)
-or-
git tfs quick-clone http://tfs:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection $/some_project
(`cd some_project` and hack away, using only git, until you need to share with TFS...)
### Pushing your changes to TFS
#### Check-in
git tfs checkintool
-or-
git tfs checkin -m "Did stuff"
#### Shelveset
git tfs shelve A_SHELVESET_NAME
### Other commands
git tfs help
