Visual Studio 2015 Upgrade Removes TFS Connection Information from .sln

I am converting vs2008 projects to vs2015 via the command line

devenv.exe "filepath"  /upgrade

When I run this process, the TFS connection information shown below is removed from the .sln file.

GlobalSection(TeamFoundationVersionControl) = preSolution
    SccNumberOfProjects = 2
    SccEnterpriseProvider = {4CA58AB2-18FA-4F8D-95D4-32DDF27D184C}
    SccTeamFoundationServer = http://tfsserver:8080/
    SccLocalPath0 = .
    SccProjectUniqueName1 = ProjectName.vbproj
    SccLocalPath1 = .
EndGlobalSection

Is there a way to prevent that from happening?

It's by designed.

For VS2008, the TFS connection information are associate with the .sln file.

However, for VS2015 this connection information are not associate with it anymore. It's stored in a TeamExplorer.xml file of VS cache. You can find it in below path: C:\Users\xxx\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\VisualStudio\14.0\Team Explorer\TeamExplorer.xml

<!--This configuration file specifies the previously-configured connection details for Team Foundation Server.-->
<server_list>
    <server url="http://xxx:8080/tfs" current="yes">
        <collection guid="145cdf8f-4c6e-47ba-9d9a-4e7328506929" url="http://xxx:8080/tfs/defaultcollection" name="xxxx\DefaultCollection" current="yes" autoload="yes">
... ....

This info is useless,so the upgrade remove them. You had to rebound the sln files to TFS manually.
