Can we use GIT as the source control for sql management studio?
Of course, the good news is that Visual Studio 2015 includes TFS and Git source control integration. With the move to VS 2015 Isolated Shell, SSMS should be able to use these packages as well, right? The answer is… yes…but!
gitSQL is a graphical user interface that connects to your running SQL Server or PostgreSQL database and dumps the content of your database into a file to be stored in Git. The main selling point seems to be cost. It competes with Redgate by being much cheaper and open source. gitSQL works with schema and data.

I’ve found out that ApexSQL has a tool that natively supports Git as a source control system. It comes as a SSMS add-in, and offers a wizard you can use to map database objects with the source control systems. To do that:
<protocol>://<hostname>:<portnumber>/<Git server name>/<repository>
(see example below): More detailed step-by-step instructions can be found in this article: http://knowledgebase.apexsql.com/link-database-source-control-system-2/
