Since I installed the Microsoft Git Provider for full integration with my (Git controlled) projects hosted on tfs.visualstudio.com, the My Work pane on the TFS Plugin for VS2012 (I'm using VS2012 Ultimate by the way) doesn't show up anymore.
But when I change the Source Control plugin on VS Options to: None or Visual Studio Team Foundation Server (which is not my source control provider), the My Work pane appears again.
Why can't I have access to this My Work pane (which gives much faster access to my Work Items instead of having to run Queries to see them) when using Microsoft Git Provider? It doesn't make sense to me, it's just a quick view of the WorkItems assigned to me, I thought this had nothing to do with my source control provider, it's just Work Items!
Does anyone know why or how to fix this? I don't want to have to run queries to open my current assigned tasks. The My Work pane is just perfect for quick access.
The "My Work" pane is not currently supported for connecting to projects hat have Git as the source control. This is due to things like "Shelving", which is fundamental to the features of My Work, not currently being available in Git. These are things that I would expect the product team to add in the future. I have no idea when it is likely to be available but "Shelving" is not currently available in Git in 2013 either.
I would expect these feature to be added on tfs.visualstudio.com before you see them on premise.
