MCP Server for Azure DevOps

# GitHub Account Information ## Current Configuration **Repository:** https://github.com/sepal7/mcp-ado.git **Current Git User:** sepal7 **Current Git Email:** (configure as needed) ## About node_modules **✅ `node_modules` is correctly excluded from GitHub** - This is the standard practice! ### Why node_modules is not in GitHub: 1. **Size**: Can contain thousands of files and be hundreds of MB 2. **Redundancy**: Dependencies are defined in `package.json` and `package-lock.json` 3. **Platform-specific**: Binaries may differ between Windows/Mac/Linux 4. **Standard Practice**: All Node.js projects exclude it ### How it works: - `.gitignore` includes `node_modules/` (already configured ✅) - When someone clones the repo, they run `npm install` to get dependencies - `package.json` and `package-lock.json` ensure everyone gets the same versions **This is correct and expected behavior!** ## GitHub Account Options ### Current Account: sepal7 (Personal) ✅ **Repository is now under personal account:** https://github.com/sepal7/mcp-ado.git **Pros:** - Personal ownership - Not tied to company - Better for public/open source projects **Cons:** - Need to change remote URL - Need to update git config - May need to transfer repository ### Recommended: Use Personal Account for Public Repos Since this is a public/open source project, using your personal GitHub account is recommended. ## How to Switch to Personal Account ### Step 1: Create/Use Personal GitHub Account 1. If you don't have a personal GitHub account: - Go to: https://github.com/signup - Sign up with your personal email - Choose a username 2. If you already have a personal account: - Use that account ### Step 2: Create New Repository (or Transfer) **Option A: Create New Repository** ```powershell # On GitHub, create a new repository under your personal account # Then update remote: cd C:\adoAzure\Github\mcp-ado git remote set-url origin https://github.com/sepal7/mcp-ado.git git push -u origin main ``` **Option B: Transfer Existing Repository** - Go to repository settings on GitHub - Scroll to "Danger Zone" - Click "Transfer ownership" - Enter your personal GitHub username ### Step 3: Update Git Config (Optional) ```powershell git config user.name "sepal7" git config user.email "sepal7@users.noreply.github.com" # Or set globally: git config --global user.name "sepal7" git config --global user.email "sepal7@users.noreply.github.com" ``` ### Step 4: Update package.json Update the repository URL in `package.json` to match your personal account. ## Recommendation **For public/open source projects:** Use personal GitHub account **For company/internal projects:** Use company GitHub account Since this MCP server is generic and public, **I recommend using your personal account**.
