Starting a new project, I suggested using git instead of TFS(last project was TFS) to my boss. He said “It (the project) is VS based, so to keep things easier...”.

I don’t think basing your project around an IDE is a smart thing to do. I don’t even like TFS its caused quite a few problems for us and is much less smoother than git. Furthermore VS offers really good git integration!

    Can relate... I enjoy using git a whole lot more than tfs, even tho tfs is quite resourceful and mature... It feels a whole lot like too much, git it's clean and streamlined... Fuck tfs

    If you are doing .Net you might want to consider TFS, it's merging/conflict resolution is way better, having said that if the project is not that large or there will be not to many conflicts then sure... We moved from TFS to Git but the auto merges are sometimes are just pain wrong, otherwise looking good...

    your last sentence sums it all up, VS offers good git integration, VS != Source Control Father

    Right. Even IF it didn’t the thought of basing software around an IDE seriously bothers me.
