Make sure your command client for TFS is downloaded and set to PATH variables
Refer link: How to Set TFS environment on the local machine
Before checkout process, TFS prefers to create local workspace for your repository.
If your rempte repository is associated with https:// Please ensure your machine is set with following environment variable
TF_ACCEPT_UNTRUSTED_CERTIFICATES=1;
1. Create local Repository for the first time
tf workspace -new -collection:https://tfsxxxx.xxx
Now your Local TFS Path is created for the server path you used. Use the following command to get the TFS workspaces available on your machine
tf workspaces
2. Create workfold ( one time process )
Goto your directory ( workfold ):
Map the repository for the first time for you local path.
tf workfold -workspace:workspacename -map $/../../Code /../../../LOCALPATH -login:sandeg,*****
It will map the local folder to TFS repo
3. Get the files (or project) from repo
Now use get which is to update the local repository with TFS server
tf get -recursive -login:username,password
All Set with your local repositories..
4. Checkin Process
All you need to work with your files and commit the changes.
If you have any new files use add option before checkin
tf add folder -recursive
Please checkin your local changes
tf checkin folder-recursive
Observe -recursive will find the changes in sub folders will operate options on all the su folders
