What is the relation between Azure devops repos and TFVC, and where is the option to choose between GIT and TFVC?

I know that azure devops has 2 offerings – 1) cloud based; 2) on-prem azure devops server

I am using clous based azure devops repos which is using GIT in the background. GIT is decentralized.

Previously, before using azure devops I used on-premise TFS (team foundation server) which is centralized source control.

Today I came across a person who is using azure devops with tfvc (and not GIT). So I am curious to know:

  1. Where in azure repos is the option to choose between TFVC vs GIT?
  2. Does using TFVC require any additional installation?

    when you are creating a new project you can choose which version control you want to use, you can choose TFVC and using Azure Repos with TFVS version control:

    It’s at the project creation that you decide which type of version control (Git or TFVC) your project will use.

    But, something interesting to know, is that you could add later:

    • git repositories to a TFVC project
    • a TFVC collection to a git project
