Welcome to the home of the TFS Migration and Synchronization Toolkit!
The purpose of the TFS Migration and Synchronization Toolkit is to enable customers of Team Foundation Server (TFS) to build custom tools that enable migration and synchronization with other version control (VC) and work-item tracking (WIT) systems. Customers have asked us for this toolkit to help them integrate TFS into their existing development environments. Please give it a try and let us know what you think.
TFS to TFS Migration Tool now available
We've just released a prerelease of the TFS to TFS migration tool on CodePlex. This tool is based on the toolkit, so if you're looking for another example of how to build a migration tool, this tool will be a big help. You can read all about it and download the source from the project website.
TFS to TFS Migration Tool
V1.0 of the Migration and Synchronization Toolkit has been released
Visit the release page to download the files (

Release Notes.
Key features of the Toolkit
- Ability to migrate historical data for VC and WIT
- Ability to migrate individual projects independent from one another
- Bi-directional synchronization of data between TFS and another system allowing teams to transition over time
- Enables integration of TFS with other VC and WIT systems (i.e. using TFS for VC but a proprietary system for bug tracking)
- Includes several reference implementations to demonstrate Toolkit capabilities and provide an example to tool authors
