Vault, Visual Studio Integration and Renegade Files

[BA]

We are using VS2008 integrated with Vault 4.1. File location settings are set to 'Attempt automatic merge'.

We are having issues with renegade files where Vault does not handle such files, nor does it prompt user to handle, within VSIDE whenever manual intervention is required. Instead Vault just appears to ignores it.

This is an issue where code changes are inadvertantly overwritten in Vault.

Looking for suggestion on resolution.

Thanks

What type of project are you working with?

What types of files are being overwritten?

Do you have the option to Prompt for Modified Files checked? That is seen in the Get dialog and also in Vault Tools - Options - Local Files - Prompt before overwriting locally modified files. With this option set, if there's something about the file that prevents merging, then it will not have the merging option available when it prompts.
