So I've upgraded to VS2013, hopefully for all development. One thing really irks me about it though. My team uses TFS, and I prefer git, so I use git-tfs to bridge the two for source control. We use TFS work items for tracking of bugs and stories and such. I prefer GitExtensions to the built-in git support of VS2013 as well, if it matters.
Anyway, When I have a solution open that's under a git-tfs repository, VS2013 will helpfully only show me options for git under the Team Explorer tab. So, when I want to go to a TFS work item query, I have to do Connect Team Project > FooProject, or some such.. VS2013 at this point, very helpfully will close my open solutiopn. So, basically I can't view work items and have a solution open in VS2013 at the same time. This seems like a gross design oversight.
Is there anyway to view work item queries within an instance of VS2013 with a git project open and/or is it possible to just disable Visual Studio 2013's git support altogether, since I prefer GitExtensions anyway?
