We are about to start a project and preparing the development environment. I was searching the possibilities of using github along with Visual Studio 10.

so does github have a Visual Studio Addin?

  • especially since the release of "github for windows" i think 'using github with visualstudio' is legitimately a separate (though clearly related) question from 'using git with visualstudio'. I have no answers but am trying to have this question answered for myself. – utunga Jul 01 '12 at 22:35

See this question for general hints using git with Visual Studio.

The accepted answer was the Git Extensions project.

I'm not aware that github would require any specific extras beyond that.

    I realise this is an old question but what about viewing github issues within VS? similar to how netbeans integrates with bugzilla? – Hades Dec 11 '11 at 02:24

I realise this is an old question but for the benefit of anyone landing here, Github extensions for visual studio have just been announced:

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/visualstudio/archive/2015/04/30/announcing-the-github-extension-for-visual-studio.aspx

So, as of that announcement, yes it does have an addin, but not for the version of visual studio that you are using.
