Visual Studio Express 2012 and Git

Question

Can the IDE level version control support in Visual Studio Express 2012 be used with Git, or would that require plug-in support available only with the full version?

Answer 1

Actually, the selected answer is wrong. Visual Studio Express 2012 supports Microsoft's plugin for Git, as it's actually an extension of Team Foundation. You can find it here: http://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/abafc7d6-dcaa-40f4-8a5e-d6724bdb980c

However as of today there are a couple of bugs in the installer preventing from installing it - this is a bug, and will be addressed in a future release (check the comments of the project to see Microsoft's response).

Answer 2

Express Editions of Visual Studio 2012: no other plugin supported, except the one (Git Plugin) built by Microsoft.
