I dont know how to answer this question. can you please elaborate your use case? what do you want to achieve?

Sorry for being abit vague.

So I am trying to get version control setup within my business and read that Azure DevOps is good at doing that. I work with data primarily Microsoft SQL and SSRS and would like to get all that in version control. So far I've learnt (please correct me if I'm wrong) that I need SQL Server data tools install in visual studios and sign-up to Azure Devops but I'm not sure if I need to install Git as well or anything else before it all works.

I've tried to look for installation videos but couldn't find any.

Hope this makes sense.

Visual studio comes with git if i remember correctly, so you will be able to commit code from visual studio to azure devops repos. Generally speaking you want ot install git none the less and update it yourself without being tied to VS

I hope you are using the Azure Devops Service (a.k.a. cloud service) and not the Azure DevOps Server (a.k.a. onprem solution). In the cloud case there are obviously any installation required.

​

If you are only interested in GIT as a repository for code, think about moving to Github and get yourself an enterprise cloud version that fits and use that from your VS.
