Using patch files with TFS (patch file is from subversion, git, etc)

Can patc开发者_开发技巧h files be read by TFS or visual studio? I'd like to either create a shelveset or apply the patch to a workspace in TFS.

According to this question:

• You can create unified diff patch files with:

tf diff /format:unified [/shelveset:] >filename.diff

with tf.exe being usually here C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE (See tf Command-Line Utility Tool in Team Foundation Server).

• You cannot import/use a patch file in TFS.
