Visual Studio has a file with the extension .suo that saves some project options. What is this file and what options it stores?
This file should be added to the project in TFS, SVN or any other source control that is being used?

This file stores the settings and preferences that are set per user in Visual Studio.
About sending them to an SCM: it depends on your intention.
If you are in a project alone and want to keep this file in version control to keep the settings equal in two different environments, it seems normal. If you’re on a project with other people programming together, this doesn’t seem like a good idea anymore.
Basically, that’s it: keep the file on source control if it is an individual project (or if you want to force project contributors to follow your Visual Studio settings). Otherwise keep these files ignored.
