TFS And Nuget Auto Package restore

Question

Does TFS 2010 support the new non-xml Automatic package restore introduced as of nuget 2.7. Or (as I suspect) is only for 2013 upwards.

Answer 1

As TFS 2010 is over 5 years old there is no new functionality added. So, no. It does not support any advances since its last update in 2011.

You should consider upgrading to TFS 2013 or preferably VSO as 2010 falls out of mainstream support in a few months.

If you are still on TFS 2010 I would question the competency of whomever is supporting TFS. That's a long time to be behind when there is no cost to upgrading but their time. If this is a common problem in your organisation then VSO would be a better solution.
