As suggested by https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/docs/tfvc/share-your-code-in-tfvc-xcode I am putting my existing code to TFVC using git-tf. But my paths are deep. During check-in I am getting,
git-tf: TF205022: The following path contains more than the allowed 259 characters:
/Users/VeryLongPath

Even though the path length limitation is really annoying, the most effective and easy way still is spending some time tweaking your file/folder structure to make this work.
For example: instead of \xx\Build\Drop\ProjectName, just use \xx\Build\Drop (or \xx\Builds) since the project name is also in the build name.
For the long path issue in TFS, there had been a related uservoice and now completed. However, it's still a problem in some areas.
Fix 260 character file name length limitation
We’ve removed the limitation from the BCL for the basic file manipulation functionality (CRUD). You can find more details here:

Also suggest you to take a look at this great blog-TFS Path Too Long problems for how to deal with the issue.
In short currently its the TFVC limitation, from https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/docs/reference/naming-restrictions#version-control-paths
Must not contain more than 259 Unicode characters for a single folder or file name.
