I wouldn't really compare Visual Sourcesafe to git... It barely
qualifies as a version control system :3

I think MS doesn't have anything that comes closer to a VCS, so there
was nothing else I could have used that comparison ;)

Not entirely true, they have Team Foundation Server (including Team
Foundation Version Control) which is reputed to work reasonably well,
especially with Visual Studio.  On the other hand I have no first hand
experience as it requires Windows Server, IIS, and SharePoint.


OK, I'm not really familiar with Microsoft tools.
I guess MS doesn't provide a Linux client for that either. ;)

Definitely not -- after all why would Microsoft even contemplate that
you were going to buy anything other than Microsoft product

that's about my point about git and windows ;)

are various plug-ins for Eclipse, IntelliJ IDEA, etc. to allow them to
make checkouts of TFS hosted repositories.

Could be similar for git. In fact JGIT exists and eclipse and netbeans plugins that use JGIT.

It's just web services so no
big deal.  Though the conspiracy theorists will undoubtedly want to
worry about all the hidden checks etc. to hobble non-Microsoft products.

Personally I'll just stick with Bazaar, Mercurial and Git.
