Unbind Source Control for Solution or Project VS 2017

Question

Is there a way in Visual Studio 2017 to unbind a solution or project from source control? I can only find answers to this question for older versions which suggest going into File > Source Control however it appears the Source Control option has been removed in this version.

For older versions:

2010,2008,2005

Answer 1

In VS2017 (checked in versions 15.8.9 & 15.9.10) and VS2019 (16.5.4), goto:

Tools / Options / Source Control / Plug-in Selection

In combo-box "Current source control plug-in:", change to "None" and click OK.

The project will close; just reopen it and that's all...

To reach the Plug-in Selection section in Options, you can also use the search box; just type "Plug-in" and click in "Source control -> Plug-in Selection". In combo-box "Current source control plug-in:", change to "None" and click OK.

Answer 2
