Convert Git repository to TFVC version control


I have a local git repository and i would like to convert it to TFVC version control and then load it to TFS server. Does anyone have an idea how to do it ?


Solution

  • To migrate Git repo to TFVC repo, you need to install git-tf tool at first.

    And also make sure you have added a TFVC repo before migration. And assume the TFVC repo name is projectname.

    After installing git-tf successful, then use below commands to checkin the files and histories in TFS TFVC repo:

    cd /payh/to/local/git/repo
    git tf configure http://tfs-server:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection "$\projectname"
    git-tf checkin --deep --autosquash
    

    Now all the files and histories in your git repo are checkin your TFS TFVC repo.
