Hands-on Azure Repos : Understanding Centralized and Distributed Version Control in Azure DevOps Services

Use Azure Repos to manage your code in both centralized and distributed version control systems. This book will show you how to work with Team Foundation Version Control (TFVC) and distributed version control (Git), while exploring their best practices.
