Hello from Jekyll!


Hello world,

Idea to create my own blog was chasing me for around half a year at the moment of writing. I hope to improve my writing skills and provide a way to retrospect in future.

Today at work I stumbled upon TFVC. It was interesting experience, but I managed to define parallels to git. It is somewhat convenient to close tasks from Visual Studio and request for a review. First thing to strike me was the lack of branches in TFVC though. It’s like, what I was expecting for? Of course Subversion inpired source control tool will be different from git xD

But what I was writing, is that it’s kinda possible to define what to X in TFVC, if you want Y in git:

  • If you check-in it’s like pushing to main branch
  • To make commit you need to suspend your work, this will place it on shelf
  • Shelved changes can be reviewed, thus making available somewhat PR alternative
  • Bonus: your """commits""" and """PRs""" are bound to tasks :D

I can’t say this is 100% true, but I had to come up with this explanations for myself :P

So, this is it, my first post on my Jekyll blog :)

Yours, {{site.author}}
