Setup Git Remote Add Azure in Azure DevOps

In Azure DevOps, you can connect your Git repository to Azure by adding a remote repository. This allows you to push and pull code from Azure.

To set up a Git remote add Azure in Azure DevOps, you need to have a Git repository created in Azure DevOps. This repository should be empty and ready to receive your code.

You'll need to navigate to your local repository in the terminal or command prompt, and then run the command `git remote add azure https://dev.azure.com/{your_organization}/{your_project}/_git/{your_repo}`. Replace `{your_organization}`, `{your_project}`, and `{your_repo}` with the actual names of your Azure DevOps organization, project, and repository.

To collaborate on a Git project and eliminate the risk of storing your entire codebase locally, you need to add a remote repository.

If you've cloned a remote Git repository, the remote is configured automatically, and you don't have to specify it when syncing with it. The default name Git gives to the remote you've cloned from is origin.

When creating a new Git repository in Azure Repos, you can use the az repos create command to create a new repository. For example, you can create a new repository for your code with the command az repos create --name FabrikamApp.

After creating the repository, you can copy the clone URL from the remote URL attribute in the JSON output. This URL will be used to connect your local repository to the Git repository in Azure Repos.

To connect your local repository to the Git repository in Azure Repos, you can use the git remote add command, specifying the copied clone URL. For example, you can use the command git remote add origin https://dev.azure.com/fabrikops2/Fabrikam/_git/FabrikamApp.

Here's a step-by-step guide to adding a repository:

Create a new Git repo in Azure Repos using the command `az repos create --name FabrikamApp`.

This will generate a JSON output with the repository details. You can copy the clone URL from the remote URL attribute in the JSON output.

The clone URL is in the format `https://dev.azure.com/fabrikops2/Fabrikam/_git/FabrikamApp`.

To connect your local repo to the Git repo in Azure Repos, use the copied clone URL in the `git remote add` command: `git remote add origin https://dev.azure.com/fabrikops2/Fabrikam/_git/FabrikamApp`.

Azure Repos is a set of version control tools that you can use to manage your code, integrated with Azure DevOps.

To set up Azure Repos, you need to create a Git repository or use Team Foundation Version Control (TFVC). Azure Repos supports two types of Version Control: Git and TFVC. Git is a version control system that lets you manage and keep track of your source code history, while TFVC is a centralized version control system.

Here are the different types of branches you can create in Azure Repos:

These branches are essential for collaboration and tracking changes in your code. Remember, a branch is a pointer to one specific commit, while a commit is a snapshot of your repository at a specific point in time.

Azure DevOps Series is a comprehensive suite of tools that covers the entire software development lifecycle. It's integrated with Azure Repos, which provides version control tools for managing your code.

Azure Repos supports two types of version control: Git and Team Foundation Version Control (TFVC). Git is a version control system that lets you manage and keep track of your source code history.

A local branch exists only on your local machine, while a remote branch exists in a remote repository and is hosted on a platform like GitHub. The "Origin" remote refers to the default remote repository created when a Git repository is cloned.

You can create a branch using the command below, and then switch to it. A branch is an independent line of development that works as a pointer to your next commits. It's a pointer to one specific commit, while a commit is a snapshot of your repository at a specific point in time.

Here are the different types of branches in Azure Repos:

Locking a branch will make it read-only and ensures that no commits can be made to the branch. This prevents other users from changing the existing commit history.

To set up Azure on Windows, you'll need to download and install Git for Windows, which includes the Git Credential Manager to easily connect to Azure Repos.

You can download Git for Windows from the official Git website, and follow the installation instructions to get started.

The Git Credential Manager will take care of securely storing your Azure credentials, making it easy to authenticate with Azure Repos without having to manually enter your credentials each time.

Once you've installed Git for Windows, you'll be all set to start using Azure Repos with your Windows machine.
