In Visual Studio for Mac, choose Visual Studio > Extensions from the menu. In the Gallery tab, select Version Control > Team Foundation Version Control for TFS and VSTS and click Install: Follow the prompts to install the extension.
Are there plans to support Team Explorer Everywhere with the Mac version of VS Code or similar hook to TFS?

My understanding after listingen to this webcast from Build https://channel9.msdn.com/Events/Build/2015/3-680 that the team is focusing on a good editor not an IDE. For me is the Team Explorer Everywhere more on the IDE side. [This is my personal opinion, I don't have any special insight into the project]
Hooks: Visual Studio Online have serveral service hooks that you maybe can leverage? https://www.visualstudio.com/get-started/integrate/integrating-with-service-hooks-vs
Currently not, but you can propose this on our User Voice.

The only two options I can see are git and subversion. I tried entering the url using the subversion option and it did ask me for credentials but the correct credentials never worked.

TFS can use either TFVC (Team Foundation Version Control) or Git for the source control part. You don't have to use an external Git server, it has an internal one - with the data stored in the TFS SQL database. You create your first repo when you create the Team Project, but you can add repos later and you can mix TFVC and Git repos in the same Team Project - since 2015.2 I think.

Microsoft is still in the denial and marketing speak phase but TFVC is basically dead, even Microsoft is using Git for all their new repos. I'm ready to bet Visual Studio Code and Visual Studio for Mac will never connect to TFVC.
Edit: I lost my bet for Visual Studio Code, it can connect to TFVC using the Visual Studio Team Services extension since version 1.116.0 (2017/04/12).
