VSO (Visual Studio Online) m loving it
-
I am one of the early adopter and I like it so much for my personal use, I can easily share my code with my friends and even work with them, please try it out it's awesome and powerful.

I'd never trust confidential code to a cloud service. If you think TFS is a better source control system than Git then ... :confused:. TFS's source control is one of the worst I've used.

Me either. I just can't stop seeing the cloud as a big backdoor to my source code that I have neither visibility nor control of. Worse, I can't get rid of the feeling of risk that I could find myself locked out of my own source by the cloud provider.
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

VSO (Visual Studio Online) it the best thing Microsoft ever done for me. I am now having all my projects stored online and to do that I no longer have to use messy (no offence) Git based source control systems. I can use my favorite TFS and have my code always accessible to me. Thank you Microsoft ******Do you fill the same?
My one gripe about VSO w/ Git is that they don't support some of the Build niceties that you get if you use TFVC. Most notably, checking drops back in to SCC. Makes it hard to fab up chained builds and separate out your projects well. Means I have had to resort to checking in binaries that could otherwise be pulled from a Drops folder if they'd bring that functionality to the Git area. Nonetheless, I have migrated *all* my projects over to VSO Git from Bitbucket & elsewhere, so I totally agree!:thumbsup:

Wow, you have a nice article there. One more thing, I have to admit, I do not have any experience with Git, But I do like to invest some time in learning it and gaining some experience. It seems a lot of people are giving more credit to GIT than to TFS.

So what do you guys do when the internet is not working? I work on sites which are phone dead zones and where there is no internet access. Guess I'll never know what it is like in a work environment. What happens if you have super-slow broadband or an uppy-downy connection - how do you use that time productively?

Thanks for the compliment on the post, hopefully you found it useful. Honestly I didn't have any Git experience either. Having an IDE built around it (Visual Studio) that does all the command-line stuff for you is very helpful. I have a friend that works at MS and the word is that internally all projects are built on Git and TFVC receives no more funding. To me that means it's going away - hence my reason for "jumping in".

VSO is pretty nice, but only for personal projects, I won't trust Microsoft my work projects source code, that's why I have my own TFS server somewhere in the cloud... ;P

I can not agree more, Closed Source in cloud is a horrible idea : I think. not just in Microsoft's cloud but in any cloud.
It have its benefits, as long as you have a backup somewhere else.
