I know covering TFS 2012 has been in the blog queue for way too long (:
A few links:
- Final Build for VS 2012 was launched in September 2012 during the Visual Studio 2012 Virtual Launch | Channel 9.
- Start at Microsoft Visual Studio TFS Express 2012 and Download Visual Studio Team Foundation Server Express 2012 with Update 2 (for repeated installations, be sure to download the ISO, not the installer)
- All Aboard the Team Foundation Server Express | TechEd Europe 2012 | Channel 9.
- Team Foundation Service used to be at http://tfspreview.com, but now is at https://tfs.visualstudio.com
- You can sign up for free at https://tfs.app.visualstudio.com/_account/Signup
- Lots of documentation at [WayBack] Supporting Guidance and Whitepapers – Download: Team Foundation Service 2012 Learnings now at [WayBack] Library of tooling and guidance solutions (aka.ms/vsarsolutions) – Visual Studio ALM Rangers.
- As hawkke has explained on StackOverflow, you can use the TFS Integration Platform tools to migrate from TFS to TFS (I used that to migrate from https://BeSharp.codeplex.com to https://BeSharp.visualstudio.com and keep parts of the two in sync)
Just look at ALM Rangers – Migrating from an On-Premises Team Foundation Server to Team Foundation Service Preview Using the TFS Integration Tools
and TFS Integration Platform – Migration Guidance Poster.jpg (1344×1008). - If you need to migrate more than the fies/history, then consider administration – TFS: Moving a Team Project from one server to another? – Stack Overflow.
- Note that Visual Studio 2012 not only supports TFS, but also GIT:
Git init VS – Brian Harry’s blog – Site Home – MSDN Blogs;
Git support for Visual Studio – Git, TFS, and VS put into Context – Scott Hanselman. - Note that TFS 2012 also supports TFS and GIT: how to import Git project to TFS Cloud – Stack Overflow.

PS: Nowadays, Team Foundation Service is called “Visual Studio Online”. But many people still call it TFS. See www.visualstudio.com
