@Mrashmi586, in a very similar way as how we do for other objects.

We can create the DB objects from the Generate and Publish Script wizard (Right click on the DB (say TestDB) -> Tasks ->Generate Script..).

From the "Choose Objects" screen, choose the Type of database objects as per your need. In the very next screen which is "Set Scripting Options" , Click Advanced Button. The last of the General Section will be "Types of Data To Script" which will be set to Schema Only (default) . If we wish to get the Schema and data, choose the option "Schema and Data". The rest is simple steps in the wizard.

Once done, take the script file and load into TFS/Subversion.

The other alternative is to create a backup(.bak) of the db and then we can import but the .bak file size will be too huge.

Hope this helps. Let us know in case of any concern.

I read this article on TechFunda http://techfunda.com/howto/28/generate-sql-script-of-whole-database that will help you to generate Scripts using Generate Scripts wizard of SQL Server Management studio.

Once the scripts is generated, upload it to TFS, Subversion etc.

Apart form this there is a paid version of third party software that is called SQLSafe or SQL Source safe (not remember exactly) that will help you to backup SQL Server objects into source safe.

Thanks
