Configuring TFS for SSIS packages

We are planning to do version control for our SSIS packages. I want to know how to install TFS and configure it to checkin SSIS packages.

I have read this SSIS TFS configuration. But here I couldn't find anything about installation. it contains only connection information TFS. Should I install from SSIS extensions? Should i install Team explorer? It is showing so many options as shown below.I don't know the right one. Also is installing this requires any license? Please guide me here. Any link with the steps is also fine.

Extension

I'm using Visual Studio 2015 and SQL Server 2012.

Refer to Install and configure Team Foundation Server and Integration Services (SSIS) and Visual Studio Team Foundation Server for details.

Should I install from SSIS extensions? Should i install Team explorer?

Yes, to design the SSIS packages you need to download and install SSDT (SQL Server Data Tools). It's an official addon for Visual Studio which adds templates for SSIS and SSAS projects. Refer to Download and install SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT) for Visual Studio for details.

And you need to install the Team Explorer to connect to TFS and manage the source control.

is installing this requires any license?

It's based on your VS subscription, you can try community version of Visual Studio, it's free.

Besides, find following blogs for your reference, hope that helps.
