I have added the MS github extension to my project. Now how do I connect it to my Github account?

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.

I am working on Xamarin visual studio on Mac and we are using visual studio team services for our project.I have no problem pulling the code but I can't seem to be able to Check in any file I modify to the team service.
If you are using GIT just take a look at below tutorials:
Working with Git on Visual Studio Mac
Xamarin DevOps with VSTS - Getting Started(Visual Studio for Mac has replaced Xamarin Studio, but similar steps on git)
For visual studio Mac, TFVC also supported for now.
However, this is only a preview feature as you can see the comment from PM:
I’m happy to say that our first preview of this feature is now
available – check out the announcement blog post.
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/visualstudio/2018/05/07/visual-studio-for-mac-version-7-5-and-beyond/
I’ll continue to share out updates here as we make updates to the
preview.

According to the comment below the blog, seems not stable for now.
For now, you want a more stably solution of using TFVC source control on Mac. You could try to use Visual Studio Code , which is more of a quick; light weight code editor.
With the help of Visual Studio Team Services extension on Visual Studio Code, it allows you to connect to Team Services and Team Foundation Server and provides support for both Team Foundation Version Control (TFVC), GIT. More details please take a look at Connect VS code with TFS on 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
https://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/563332-visual-studio-for-mac/suggestions/17136163-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.
More details please take a look at my reply at this question: Connect VS code with TFS on mac
Here is an alternate way of doing the same.It is working fine for me
How to use TFS on a Mac
Steps to be followed:
Step 1: Install Eclipse
Step 2: Download and install the TFS everywhere plugin
Step 3: Checkout your solution using the eclipse to a local folder
Step 4: Open the solution in Visual studio and make the code changes
Step 5: Open eclipse and commit your changes.
We have updated our On-Premise Team Foundation Server to 2015. A couple of year ago, I had created Default Team Project, but I forgot how I created it.
In TFS 2015, I could not find New link next to Browse which we normally see in Visual Studio Team Services (was Visual Studio Online).
Our server administrator said I have Administrator access. Could you point me to the right direction?
Screen Shot for CeCe's Answer
I could not see New team project link.
Screen Shot for Patrick's Answer
I could not see New team project link.
TFS Version
If you're using TFS 2015 Update 2 or later then you can create a
team project from the web as well.
More detail info please refer the link from MSDN: Create a team project
So for your TFS version, you should either update it to TFS 2015 update 2 or you may have to create team project through Team explorer.
Go to collection administration page, you'll see "New team project":
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.
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.
