Description

Please add support for Team Foundation Server (TFS) to OpenGrok.

I just cloned your project; and am happy to try to add support; but I'm not aware of all the touchpoints to add support for a new SCM. Is there currently documentation on that?

Research direction
Investigate existing SCM implementations in OpenGrok (e.g., Mercurial, Git) to understand extension points. Look for documentation or code comments in the repository. Propose a design for adding TFS support. Check if there are any related discussions or forks.
