Is there any Visual Studio Express plug ins for source versioning? I am starting a project on my own and only have the Express version of Visual Studio 2008.

Flexible and extensible version control Utilize the built-in GitHub and Azure DevOps integration for your remote provider, or install extensions to enhance the experience for other version control providers.
In 2013, Microsoft began supplanting Visual Studio Express with the more feature-rich community edition of Visual Studio, which is also available free of charge. The last version of the Express edition is 2017.
Source Control Explorer is available in Visual Studio, but isn't opened by default when working with a project managed in TFVC. You can open the Source Control Explorer window: From the Team Explorer home page (Keyboard: Ctrl + 0, H), choose Source Control Explorer.
Visual Studio Express products are available at no charge and may be used for commercial, production usage subject to the license terms provided with each product. For example, you can use Express for Windows to create apps that you can then submit for sale in the Windows Store.
Way I do this is I have TortosieHG installed and then in visual studios express i went to Tools>External Tools.
I created the following enteries:
Title: HG New Repositry
Command: C:\Program Files\TortoiseHg\hgtk.exe
Arguments: --nofork init Initial
directory: $(SolutionDir)
Title: HG Commit
Command: C:\Program Files\TortoiseHg\hgtk.exe
Arguments: --nofork init Initial directory: $(SolutionDir)
I then added the two external tools to the toolbar. Now I don't get as nice intergration as I would with the full version of visual studios but I can commit source code and create a source repository without leaving Visual Studios.
