How might I run git tfs clone without permissions to create a temporary workspace--or, alternatively, specify an existing permanent workspace which git tfs should not cleanup afterward?
Running command:
git tfs clone --branches=all http://tfs:8080/tfs/DefaultTFSCollection "$/Project"
Error:
TF14044: User {USER} needs the CreateWorkspace global permission(s).
For what it's worth, our TFS admins create workspaces (same as %COMPUTERNAME%). However, my user does not have permissions to create workspaces.
Have downloaded and identified the source code location which seems to perform the temporary workspace creation.
However, can I just not do so? What benefit does a temporary workspace provide?
Use case: Migrating away from TFS 2012 TFVC, to Git (Azure DevOps). So just want to clone. No future need to write back to TFS TFVC.
Thank you
