GitHub and Visual Studio [duplicate]

Possible Duplicate:
Using Git with Visual Studio

What's the most painless way for the Visual Studio developer to start using GitHub? Ideally the answer would involve a Visual Studio plugin, or some other integration app?

  • What solutions are available today to view/update GitHub repositories?
  • Can you rely or expect the same functionality as compared to other VS integrated source control plugins?
  • What processes would you change, as a user, when approaching this use-case from the TFS or SourceGear Vault scenarios?
  • The current use case is in single-developer mode, but certainly this question is open to single dev and teams of any size.
  • Any tools that are Visual Studio plug-ins would be considered 'top of the list'

Is GitHub and Visual Studio same?

Visual Studio and GitHub better together. Use GitHub and Visual Studio to bring your source control and CI/CD workflows closer to your code. GitHub support is now built into Visual Studio.

Can you duplicate GitHub repository?

Open Terminal . Create a bare mirrored clone of the repository. Set the push location to your mirror. As with a bare clone, a mirrored clone includes all remote branches and tags, but all local references will be overwritten each time you fetch, so it will always be the same as the original repository.

See this question for general hints using git with Visual Studio.

The accepted answer was the Git Extensions project.

I'm not aware that github would require any specific extras beyond that.

Have a look at tortoisegit . It is not a visual studio plugin but it provides a GUI to the world of git (which can be irritating at first).
