plug in for android studio to connect to TFS on mac - macos

is there any plug-in for android studio to connect to TFS?
i've already used Git-Tf from microsoft but i want to know if there is any other solutions out there , i've already searched Google but it all the results is about Git-Tf

From Android Studio menu, select Preferences-> Plugins -> then browse TFS or azure DevOps and install.
You can use from vcs menu or file ->New-Project From Version Control->and select login and browse repo and clone
Thanks

In TFS 2013 you have the native Git. Then you can have the original command line Git, commiting on TFS, through any tool.

Visual Studio for Mac: Connecting to TFS

Using Mac OS 10.13.6 and Visual Studio for Mac Community v7.5.4
Trying to connect to my company's TFS and access the files. I got stuck when it would not let me create a Workspace. I found this thread:
Connect VS code with TFS on mac
It says to download from https://github.com/Microsoft/team-explorer-everywhere/releases a zip staring with TEE-CLC... which I did. In Terminal, when I try running the command at the 1:20 mark in this video nothing happens. I double click the tf command in my Finder window and a Terminal window opens showing "Saving session...copying shared history...saving history...[Process completed]". Again, nothing happens.
I think I'm the only person at my company who is trying to use VS for Mac. Any thoughts?? I'm at the end of my rope just about.
The thread you are referring to is for Visual Studio Code. Since you are using Visual Studio for Mac, you should refer to the article below to connect to TFS:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/visualstudio/mac/tf-version-control
First, check the requirements of connecting to Team Foundation version control from VS for Mac, to see whether your environment meets the requirements:
Visual Studio Community, Professional, or Enterprise for Mac version
7.5 or later.
Visual Studio Team Services, or Team Foundation Server 2013 and later.
A Project in Visual Studio Team Services or Team Foundation Server, configured to use Team Foundation Version Control.
Then follow the steps below to install the extension and connect to VSTS/TFS:
In Visual Studio for Mac, choose Visual Studio > Extensions... from the menu. In the Gallery tab, select Version Control > Team Foundation Version Control for TFS and VSTS and click Install…:
Updates to the TFVC extension are made periodically. To access updates, choose Visual Studio > Extensions... from the menu and select the Updates tab. Select the extension in the list and press the Update button:
Once the extension is installed, select the Version Control > TFS/VSTS > Open from Remote Repository menu item.
Choose either Visual Studio Team Services or Team Foundation Server to get started and press Continue:
Enter the TFS server information or VSTS credential, and select a project.
After installing the extension, you can create a workspace from the Workspace combobox in the Open from Source Control dialog:

How to configure local existing TFS server in Visual Studio 2017 Mac?

I am working on Xamarin with Visual Studio 2017. My organization has its own domain base TFS server, Now I need to configure that server to my Visual Studio 2017 Mac version projects.
I found the Visual Studio code is capable to connect the TFS, but it's connecting the Visualstudio.com server, I need to connect to the server which is my organization.
For visual studio Mac, TFS isn't supported for now. There has been a uservocie, you can vote up and monitor it.
TFS Version Control

However as a workaround, you could use Visual Studio Code to connect on-premise
TFS server.
TFVC
You can connect to TFVC using the Visual Studio Team Services extension since version 1.116.0 (2017/04/12). This extension allows you to connect to Team Services and Team Foundation Server.
Note: You need Team Foundation Server 2015 Update 2 or later.

Add a project in TFS

I have Visual Studio Ultimate edition and need to add a project in TFS.
I want to make my local desktop as the TFS server.
My desktop specs:
Windows 7
Visual Studio 2010 Utlimate
I have no idea how to go about it and add a new project in TFS. I read a lot of blogs but didn't find any that lists something from scratch.
As in when I try to create a Team project in TFS, i get the server section as empty. How to configure my local desktop to act as a TFS server??
First things first, read this: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd997788.aspx (Compatibility between Team Foundation clients and Team Foundation Server)
Second, you need to decide which version of TFS you are planning to run. Is your company paying for a version of it or are you planning on using the express edition available (2013)?
If your answer to that is TFS Express 2013, then I suggest you navigate to this link and download the installer. Run it and follow the instructions.
If you are planning a full licensed installation, you should familiarize yourself with the various components that come with it (Report server, Sharepoint, etc).
Here is a link to install and administration: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29035
Follow the following steps:
1.
If you haven't already, connect to your Visual Studio Online account and create your workspace folder.
2.Move the code you want to upload to the workspace folder.
3.Open your solution in Visual Studio.

Connecting Visual Studio 2012 to Github.com

I have added the MS github extension to my project. Now how do I connect it to my Github account?
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudioalm/archive/2013/01/30/getting-started-with-git-in-visual-studio-and-team-foundation-service.aspx
The above link put me on the right track to integrating Team Foundation Service with Visual Studio 2012. I misunderstood Git vs Github and will continue to use Github as my ALM for the moment. The integration of git version control integrated within VS will be worth another look for the next project.

How do I select Visual SVN as my source control provider

I am using Visual Studio Ultimate which come with TFS. However I am using Visual SVN as my source control.
I have installed VisualSVN server and the Visual Studio plug in.
What should I do to switch from TFS to Visual SVN.
When I go do Tools/Options/Source Control/Plug-in selection, I have the choice between "None" and TFS.
VisualSVN automatically "just works" when you open a SVN working copy - you don't need to mess with Visual Studio's SCC plugin settings. So you need to look at migrating your source code code into the SVN repository first. When you've done this, just check it out, open the solution and you're done. (You may want to remove all the "SccProjectName/SccProvider..." garbage from your project files beforehand)
To migrate your repository history from TFS to SVN, there's the TFS2SVN project (I've not used it though).
If you're not stuck on VisualSVN, try AnkhSVN. We use that here, and had no issues in getting it to work with VisualStudio 2010.
AnkhSVN is an open source plugin, so there's no need to pay for a license.
If VisualSVN is like AnkhSVN, you need to in tall VisualStudio first, then AnkhSVN. Then go into VisualStudio and select SVN in the Source Control Plug-in selection.
