With the dual-bound model, you use the first source control binding to do most of the version control work the Source Control ribbon in Flare is used only for tasks related to the first binding. However, if possible, it's recommended that you use the single-bound setup since it's simpler and more streamlined. Some users might decide to use this model because it allows them to continue using a source control provider they're comfortable with, while also taking advantage of features on Central. Dual-bound means that your project has a first binding to a third-party source control provider-such as Git, Perforce Helix Core, Subversion, or Team Foundation Server-and then a second binding to Central.
