Summary

The list-remote-branches command help you find the branches to clone of a TFS server.

Synopsis

  -u, --username=VALUE       TFS username
  -p, --password=VALUE       TFS password

Examples

To display all the remotes of a TFS server, do this:

git tfs list-remote-branches http://tfs:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection

Output

TFS branches that could be cloned :

 $/project/trunk [*]
 |
 +- $/project/branch1
 |
 +- $/project/branch2
 |
 +- $/project/branch3
	|
	+- $/project/branch3-1
	
Cloning root branches (marked by [*]) is recommended!

Then you can use the [clone](clone.md) command with the good remote branch of your choice! However, it is recommended to clone the root branch and then use the [branch](branch.md) command to manage branches.

If the TFS server need an authentication, you could use the --username and --password parameters. If you don't specify theses informations, you will be prompted to enter them. This informations are not store by git-tfs.

git tfs list-remote-branches http://tfs:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection -u=DISSRVTFS03\peter.pan -p=wendy
