Import SourceSafe to Vault

Post by rda » Thu Dec 03, 2009 2:04 pm

Hi,

I'm trying to import our old Visual SourceSafe files and history into our new Vault repository - how do I do this? I see the "Handoff" feature in the Vault admin panel (Version 5.0.2) on the web interface, but according to what I have read, this Handoff doesn't actually import all of the SS data. I want to import everything so that we can completely delete SourceSafe afterwards. How to proceed?

Thanks!

We have a VSS Import tool for importing VSS history. More info here:

Great, I will try that, thanks. I saw references to it on google but I couldn't find where to DL it.
