Team Explorer Everywhere Cross-platform Command-line Client for Team Foundation Server

This project contains:

• Cross-platform Command-line Client for Team Foundation Server and Team Services
• Team Foundation Server/Team Services SDK for Java

The purpose of this client is mainly to support Azure DevOps Plugin for IntelliJ.

What is the Command-line Client for TFS?

The CLC for TFS allows you run version control commands from a console/terminal window against a TFS server on any operating system. This tool is for use with Team Foundation Version Control (TFVC), a centralized version control system. If you prefer to use Git, you can use any Git client with TFS or Team Services as well.
