如何使用 git-tf 克隆名称中带有连字符的 TFS 存储库

Question

Please help! I've been banging my head against the wall all week on this one! When I attempt to clone an repository with a long dash in its name, I get a repository not found error. I have tried all sorts of ways to escape it with not luck.

Here is my code:

git tf clone -b --branches "<servername>" "$/Tech Consulting – Conversions/Infinity Conversion Tools/Conversion Engine"

Seven years after this question was asked, I had the same problem. I am on Windows 10 using git bash. I used the Windows emoji keyboard (accessed by Windows key plus period) to enter a medium length dash on the command line, and this allowed me to match the name of the TFS branch I was trying to clone.
