If you are on TFS 2013, you can apparently use Git to access the
repository...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Team_Foundation_Server#Git

so technically... it shouldn't alter any server/client build configuration
you know about that is compatible with it.
I'd still rather use a Github or Bitbucket since Visual Studio can easily
integrate with Git too... but if your a Microsoft shop... you probably get
TFS bundled with your licensing packages... so probably cost neutral.
