"I'll admit--the Microsoft stack is a walled garden. It offers some nice features like Visual Studio integrating with Visual Studio Team Services with its own issue tracker and build server and so on. If Microsoft supports your workflow or integrates with the tooling you like, awesome. If not, well, just wait and hope that it will someday support what you're looking for."

To be fair, they are getting better about that. Git has almost as good support as TFS in Visual Studio these days and MS is even integrating Linux of all things into its latest Windows releases. If that trend continues, MS will eventually be much less of a walled garden.
