TeamFoundationConnectionService.Connect Method

Provides the client with all of the information they need to know in order to work with the TeamFoundationConnection object. Properties of ConnectionData that do not have a corresponding entries in connectOptions cost very little to calculate and will be returned every type. If no changes have occured since lastChangeId, no service data will be returned. If this is the first time this method is being called or the caller wants all of the information returned then -1 should be passed for lastChangeId.
