Overview

We were still shipping from TFS.

At Solera, source, work items, and builds still lived in Team Foundation Server. I led the migration to GitHub for a couple services and microservices. We were looking for a place to have a better control for history, reviews, and GH Copilot.

The after

The cutover.

Me and my team moved one service at a time. Mirror the repo, stand up the pipeline on GitHub, compare artifacts against the TFS build, and only cut TFS when GitHub was the only writer and the output still matched.
