Using TFS Integration

Prerequisites

• The TFS integration does not require a standalone TFS client. All you need is an account in your Team Foundation Server.
• The TFS Integration plugin is installed and enabled. For details, see Installing, Updating and Uninstalling Repository Plugins and Enabling and disabling plugins.
• The TFS integration is enabled for the entire project root or a specific directory. For more details, see Enabling Version Control.

TFS support

• When the TFS integration with WebStorm is enabled, the TFS item appears on the VCS menu, and on the context menus of the Editor and Project views.
• The files in the folders under the TFS control are highlighted according to their status. See File Status Highlights for file status highlighting conventions.
• Results of modifications show in the Changes tool window.
• When using the TFS integration, it is helpful to open the Version Control tool window. Its Console tab displays the following data:
  • All the commands generated based on the settings you specify through the WebStorm user interface.
  • Information messages concerning the results of executing generated TFS commands.
  • Error messages.
