How Can I Bring In Changes To Git From TFS Since The Git Repository Was Created?
We have an application which used TFS for source control.
We switched to Git and brought the code over from TFS.
Some development then took place and new changes were checked into TFS.
There have been no changes made yet in Git.
How can I now update the Git source with the changes in TFS?

When you say you used TFS for source code - do you mean TFVC (Team Foundation Version Control) or just used TFS to host your Central Git Repo?

How did you do your migration? With 'git-tfs'? Or just copying the files?

After you migrate from TFVC to GIT the best practice is to lock the TFVC repo and NOT keep working on him.
But if you didn't lock and some people did a check-in with new code to TFVC, you can use the tool git-tfs (I guess you used him for the migration) to pull the changes from TFVC to your new Git repo.
The command is: git-tfs pull [options]
The pull command fetches TFS changesets (like the fetch command) and merges (or rebase using r option) the current branch with the commits fetched (creation of a merge commit or rebase all the commits).
See more info and examples here.
