Hi Experts,

I have a question with respect to this migration tool. I am trying to migrate my code from TFS to Hit and came across two question,

1. I have a history of almost 3 years and would have numerous check in and check outs. Will this tool support migrating the entire version history of last 3 years or there is any limitation on how many versions it can migrate.

2. Will this tool support binary file migration, we have some excel template that hets checked in and checked out. will this tool support this as well ?

Thanks
Praveen Kumar

The history should usually not be the problem, as I am dealing hiere with much older projects which can be

successfully imported.

Concerning your question about the binary files, git itself is not so well suited for binaries, but propably will handle

some small excel files fine. But this is not specific to git-tfs, but simply a general problem within git.
