title: So Visual Studio officially supports Git now. What does that mean?
body: <p>I just read an extremely interesting <a href="http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudioalm/archive/2013/01/30/getting-started-with-git-in-visual-studio-and-team-foundation-service.aspx">article</a> that apparently as of this past Visual Studio 2012 update, it now has official Git support built in. </p>
  
  <p>My question is, what does that mean exactly? Does this mean that TFS servers can now host Git repositories? Or, does Visual Studio use something like <code>git-tfs</code> behind the scenes to use regular TFS repositories with a Git bridge? Or does this apply to TFS servers at all? Also is using Git outside of Visual Studio which is hosted on TFS plain ol' vanilla git, or is it like the git-tfs bridge?</p>
  
  <p>Also, is there any documentation yet about converting a TFS repository to a Git repository with this support?</p>
