Organizing Code Using Azure Repos in Azure DevOps

Azure Repos provides a suite of version control tools to host your code and files for supporting your development project. Azure Repos helps you keep track of code history, allowing you to roll back to an older snapshot of your code if you so wish. Azure Repos helps you organize your code, allows you to connect your code to your desired IDE (such as Visual Studio Code), lets you review code merges with pull requests, and much more.

In this lab, you will:

• Create a new repository
• Clone repo to an IDE
• Make a branch to make changes
• Commit changes and submit a pull request to merge to the master branch

Please be aware that this lab creates an Azure DevOps environment that can take up to fifteen minutes to become available. Please ensure you have enough time available before starting the lab.
