VisualSVN Option is not visible in Visual Studio - visual-studio

I have Installed Visual Studio 2013 and then Installed VisualSVN-Server-2.7.8, But There is no Option for VisualSVN in Visual Studio .This Option can be seen in my Visual Studio 2012 as I Installed on another system ,Please help me how to integrate svn in visual studio 2013 manually.

Visual SVN Server is an SVN server. It bundles a pre-configured and customized version of Apache with SVN. It provides a really good experience hosting SVN on Windows with really quick and easy installation, updates, and maintenance.
For Visual Studio integration you want Visual SVN, not Visual SVN Server. You need at least Visual SVN 4.0.0 to support Visual Studio 2013. The latest release is 4.0.p.

I had the same problem with Visual Studio 2012. Uninstalled Microsoft GIT tools, and Visual SVN options became visible.

Re-Enable Visual SVN in Visual Studio 2017

I installed Visual SVN for Visual Studio 2017. It was working fine. After some days, i got a message box in visual studio to disable the Visual SVN for best performance. I disabled it but now, i don't know how to enable it again.
I tried installing Visual SVN again but it says that it is already installed.
I checked the Tools -> Options -> Source Control but it has only TFS and Git options and didn't find the Visual SVN options.
Any help would be appreciated.
You should be able to re-enable Visual SVN in Tools - Extensions and Updates.

Can you please help me how to add this plug in? Thank you
I install Visual Studio Community 2015 (make sure you use vs_community.exe) and SourceSafe option will be available.
I was using vs_Desktop.exe previously.
Make sure to select and download the community edition instead of the visual studio express for desktop
There is patch for Visual SourceSafe that once installed lets you see the SourceSafe plugin in the Visual Studio Tools|Source Control plugin list here it is

How to connect to visualstudio.com TFS using Visual Studio 2008

I have some requirements that I need to use Visual Studio 2008 for a new SSIS package. But we are using visualstudio.com as our source control because we were allowed to use Visual Studio 2012 for our main project.
I tried following the instructions here http://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/get-started/connect-to-vs.aspx and here how to open Team Explorer in Visual Studio 2008 and no go.
Has anyone been able to connect to their TFS server at visualstudio.com from Visual Studio 2008? If so, how did you do it?
Officially VS 2008 is only supported against TFS 2013 (and Visual Studio Online) by using the MSSCCI. However, in practice it still works fine without MSSCCI, MS just no longer tests this particular scenario, so it's not guaranteed to continue working.
Make sure you have the appropriate updates installed, you need:
VSTS 2008 Team Explorer
VS 2008 SP1
TFS 2012 Compatibility GDR
Order of installation is very important. Refer to this article.
Moreover, if you are still having issues connecting to TFS after successfully installing above mentioned updates, consider clearing your IE browsing history (all checkboxes) and retry.
Per MSDN you can access version control on Visual Studio Online with Visual Studio 2008 using Team Explorer for Visual Studio Team System 2008 and MSSCCI 2013.

Excel plug in for TFS 2012 without installing VS 2012

Is it possible to have the "team" plug-in for Excel (MS TFS 2012) without having to install Visual Studio 2012?
Thank you!
The Excel integration comes as part of Team Explorer for Visual Studio 2012. Installing it installs all the TFS integration bits on your machine (and allows you to install things like the Shell extension power tools). It does also install small Visual Studio shell but one that doesn't include any of the programming tools etc.
You only need a license to access your Team Foundation Server to install Team Explorer (i.e. a TFS CAL) - no additional Visual Studio license required.
You can try installing Visual Studio 2012 express web or some other version, if Team menu is not showing up yet in excel then try installing TFS 2012 Express also try installing Team Explorer for Microsoft Visual Studio 2012

Installing TFS 2012 where some Visual Studio 2010 are still present?

Is it safe to install TFS 2012 where some Visual Studio 2010 dev machines are still present?
Thanks.
You can use VS 2010 with TFS 2012, but you need to install SP1 and a GDR. See the compatibility matrix for more information.
You won't be able to use the new features (like code review) nor create new team projects though.
