Re: TFS Online Repositiory
Hi Erich,
I can understand the desire for this but I'm afraid that support for this is very unlikely. Our developers responsible for the TFS integration are actually sorry that they did it in the first place and they definitely don't want to extend it. Apparently the whole interface to it is so troublesome, and Microsoft makes so many deep modifications every time they change it, that every update is as much work as integrating a completely new version control system. This is also the main reason that has delayed support for Git, which is a genuinely good system like SVN.
As explained in the Help+Manual documentation, we strongly recommend that you only use TFS if you have no alternative. SVN is a much better system in every way.
