Is it possible to use VisualStudio.com with VS2010?

Question

Is it possible to connect to TFS hosted at visualstudio.com via Visual Studio 2010? Everything appears to point me to download and install VS2012. Is there a Windows client possibly? Please, I know I should just upgrade to VS2012, but until I do, can I use VS2010?

Answer 1

Yes, you can use with VS2010 but you need to install a small patch:

Visual Studio 2010 SP1 Team Foundation Server 2012 Compatibility GDR

Update provides compatibility between all VS 2010 products that connect to Team Foundation Server 2012 or the Team Foundation Service Preview
