Checking in solution after projects are checked in

Post by kevinkenny » Sun Jan 31, 2010 10:13 am

I have a number of Visual Studio 2008 solutions where the project files have been checked into SourceGear but the solution files weren't. I'd now like to get the solution files under source control.

What happens if I do 'Add Solution to Source Control'? Is this safe to do? Are there any gotchas?

Thanks
Kev

Since adding a solution will cause it to try and add everything, I would recommend using the Vault GUI client to add the solution and then use the Change Vault Bindings function to bind the solution you have on disk to the solution in Vault.
