Migrate from VSS to SVN retaining history

六月ゝ 毕业季﹏ 提交于 2021-01-29 10:38:08
问题 We are trying to use http://vss2svn.codeplex.com/ to migrate from VSS to SVN but we also want to retain the history. We are trying to find out what pre-commit hook scripts need to be used for this, if these are readily available and can be used as-is. Thank you. Regards, Rupa 回答1: We had good experience with VSS2SVN including the history (formerly in Google Code). If I remember it correctly, no customization or hook modification was required. It was quite fast and reliable even with huge

问题 A client still uses Visual SourceSafe, but after showing the numerous dangers and deficiencies of VSS, they've decided to migrate from VSS to SVN Subversion. The choice-to-be seems Tortoise SVN with AnkhSVN (good choice?). A migration aid is described here. The project contains two websites, a few web applications, several control and function libraries. It seems to me that a "sweep all VSS related" and then "import in SVN" is the way to go. But worlds aren't perfect. What are the problems we

VSS to SVN - Repositories

问题 We're finally moving from Visual Source Safe to VisualSVN (et al) woohoo. Is it common practise to just create one repository, and then subsequently add all projects as subfolders of this repository, or create one repository for each project? 回答1: The version numbers are independent if you create a separate repository for each project. So project A might be at version 10 and B at 100. The version number is a running total if you have one repository and a subfolder for each project. 回答2: You

Why don't files automatically get checked out from VSS when I edit them?

问题 This is driving me crazy and has resulted in lost work (not much, at least). Normally, when I edit a file in Visual Studio, it's supposed to automatically check that file out in source safe. On multi-project solutions (e.g., web app with class libraries), sometimes none of the files in one project would automatically get checked out, though exiting & reloading visual studio may fix that problem temporarily. Furthermore, project files are never automatically checked out. Whenever I add/remove

Retrieve Deleted Project in MS Visual SourceSafe?

问题 A while ago, I "tidied up" our Visual SourceSafe repository, including deleting a duplicate of one project. It now turns out that the duplicate had some code I need to see. How can I get back a deleted project? I can't see from any of the docs how to do this. Thanks for any help. 回答1: The answer is there on Microsoft's site: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/244019. Select the project which is the parent of the deleted project. Right-click and select "Properties..." Select the "Deleted Items"

问题 If I want to create a patch file of a directory with svn, all I need to do is right click on the directory, click tortoiseSVN, then click create patch, and I have a nice patch file of the differences between the latest version of the code on svn and the code on my machine. Is there a way to build a diff file buried within VSS or is it just another part of VSS that does not work? 回答1: With VSS, you can right-click on a project, click Show Difference. In the Project Difference dialog box, you

migrating data from VSS to SVN

问题 How do i migrate my data from VSS to SubVersion?? 回答1: It depends on whether you want to take the VSS Meta Data with you. If yes, have a look at PowerAdmin or Vss2SVN on Tigris If no, just to a search of the Code Folders on your machine to remove all .scc & .vss files and then dump that code into your SVN Repo in the standard way. EDIT: Looks like Vss2SVN Development on Tigris has been parked. 回答2: there's a better migration tool on Codeplex, called (imaginatively) VSS2SVN. It works very well

Get all files checked out by a user using the Visual Source Safe command line application SS.exe

问题 We currently use VSS 6, this is not going to change I am afraid. I am attempting to write a script that will allow a user to quickly copy all files that they have checked out to another directory tree. In order to do this I need to get a list of all the files that the user has checked out, and the directory that the file is checked out to. This is easy enough to do using status search in the GUI. But I need a way of doing it from the command line utility ss.exe. 回答1: Two links that may be of

Performance in Subversion vs. SourceSafe

问题 We're a distributed team of 5 developers working on rather large integrations project. We currently use SourceSafe (yes I know it sucks but it has just worked until recently and we've used it forever). Our biggest problem has recently become performance. Checking in and out project just takes forever and we're finding ourselves spending a lot of time just waiting for SourceSafe (yes we've turned off anti-virus check and all the other performance boost trix - it's still slow). We're now
