The article doesn't directly say it, but are they migrating the Windows source code repository to git? That seems like a big deal.

I seem to recall that Microsoft has previously used a custom Perforce "fork" for their larger code bases (Windows, Server, Office, etc.).

Source Depot. Forked years ago with tons of added features. Various Halo titles also used it and had easy to use integrations with most of the art and design pipeline tools.

Yes, Windows is migrating to Git.

Do you have a citation for that?

It was stated in Saeed Noursalehi's talk "Scaling Git at Microsoft", held at Git-Merge 2017. Until the conference recordings are available, here is the closest thing to a "source": https://twitter.com/no_more_ducks/status/827479795185364993

There is no citation but he seems to be pretty good source :)
