Disabling Visual Studio Git Provider
Raw
undef.md

Here's how to disable the package that is responsible for loading the Git source control support in Visual Studio. Use at your own risk!

  • Create a file called devenv.pkgundef and place it next to devenv.exe in you Visual Studio's Common7\IDE (you'll need elevation for this)
  • Add the following entries to the file:
[$RootKey$\Packages\{7fe30a77-37f9-4cf2-83dd-96b207028e1b}]
[$RootKey$\SourceControlProviders\{11b8e6d7-c08b-4385-b321-321078cdd1f8}]
  • Close VS if open, open a Developer command prompt, and type devenv /updateconfiguration
  • Start VS, and voilla - Git support no more!

To undo, delete the devenv.pkgundef file, and run devenv /updateconfiguration again.
