Branch “users/<username>” organization for git repos in visual studio team services

Question

I've seen this question on another forum with no answers and I am actually trying to figure out the same thing.

https://superuser.com/questions/1120229/vsts-branch-users-username-organization-for-git-repos

Any idea how to create a branch under users//?

Answer 1

You can create users/frank as a branch. But you can't then create users/frank/somefeature. Just create the branch locally with the full name users/frank and then publish it to VSTS from Visual Studio or push from the commandline.
