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.

V1.1 of the Migration Toolkit has been released

This release (Migration Sync Toolkit v1.1 (Prerelease)) contains many bug fixes as well as some new functionality for branch and merge. Visit the release page to download the files and be sure to read the Release Notes. This release of the toolkit has also been used to update the TFS to TFS Migration Tool.

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

Toolkit Documentation

The documentation for building tools based on the Toolkit is contained in the following wiki pages. Please note that this content will grow over time. If there are areas of the documentation that are unclear, please be sure to post on the Issue Tracker page.
