Getting Started with Azure Team Foundation Version Control

Abstract

Team Foundation Version Control (TFVC) is a centralized version control system for your source code management. Generally, a team member will have one version of each source code file on their machine while using TFVC. Branches of source code are based on paths and get created on the server. A history of version control is maintained on the source control server, not on the local developer machine. In TFVC you can apply permissions at a granular level, and restrictions can be applied at the file level, which we will discuss in Chapter 6.
