Introduction

git-tfs is a two-way bridge between TFS and git, similar to git-svn.

Usage

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...)

git tfs checkin -m "Did stuff"
