Hi Barry, With Git in TFS, you can create multiple git repositories per-project. So you would create a repository per App. With Git you don't create folders for branches, the branching concepts work at a repository wide level. You also are dealing with a DVCS, so you need to push branches to the central remote repository (hope that makes sense to you).

I neglected to mention that we want to use Git version control, and as far as I can tell Source Code Explorer is only available on TFVC repositories. I didn't realize that the concepts I am asking about are more fine grained than TFS (collections and projects) in general. Is there a way to achieve what I am looking for with TFS Git?

The Branches sub-folder is actually just a regular folder in which you place branches of the Trunk (typically). So lets say that you wanted to create a branch of the AppW Trunk, you would branch it to $/DeptA/AppW/Branches/MyBranch. -- Regards, Mitch Denny Readify | Practice Manager, Consulting & Training | ALM MVP +61 (414) 610-141 | mitch.de...@readify.net<mailto:mitch.de...@readify.net> | @MitchDenny<http://twitter.com/MitchDenny> From: oztfs-boun...@oztfs.com<mailto:oztfs-boun...@oztfs.com> [mailto:oztfs-boun...@oztfs.com] On Behalf Of Pape, Barry Sent: Saturday, 2 November 2013 3:33 AM To: oztfs@oztfs.com<mailto:oztfs@oztfs.com> Subject: TFS Setup Hello, Maybe someone here can give me some advice. I'm a first time user and am in the process of setting up a TFS 2013 server. I posted on Microsoft about how to setup the structure (http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/c46e150a-9c10-4ac2-8e40-6db4d0e730c7/tfs-structure?forum=tfsgeneral&prof=required) and came to the conclusion to use: CollectionA DeptA AppW Trunk Branches AppX Trunk Branches DeptB AppY Trunk Branches AppZ Trunk Branches In this setup, each department would be a team project, but what feature/mechanism in TFS would I use to make each app and the trunk/branches elements? The idea is that each app would have its own security. So far the only thing I found that seemed like it would work is the Areas feature. So in my test project I created some areas and tried to restrict access, but that doesn't seem to be working thus far, and how do I even access an area from Visual Studio? Any suggestions or help is much appreciated. Thanks, Barry
