AngularJS 4.0 / TFS - TFS not allowed to checkin $data folder

I am writing a code in AngularJS 4.0. We are using TFS as source code management tool.

We have

$data.js

file added in our project. But TFS is not allowed us to check-in this file.

I am getting below message -

--------------------------- Microsoft Visual Studio --------------------------- Add to Source Control

No eligible items were found for addition.

--------------------------- OK Help

Please help me in resolving this error.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

The error message in the exception is correct. Please take a look at official Naming Syntax, Conventions, and Limitations:

Most names in Team Foundation version control cannot begin or end with spaces or tabs. Any character can be used for names or labels, except

...

A dollar sign ($) cannot be the first character in a file name.

You cannot place files with those names in TFVC. Otherwise you may get a similar error as below:

TF10122: The path ‘$/xx/$data.js’ contains a ‘$’ at the beginning of a path component. Remove the ‘$’ and try again.”

You have to rename this file $data.js to another name syntax then check in TFS again.
