Project Description

A tool, written in C#, for importing a Visual SourceSafe database into Subversion (SVN) while maintaining the complete file history.

A good writeup on what VssMigrate is and does and how to get up and running was written by Nathan / devSolo @ http://devsolo.com/index.php/2009/05/migrating-visual-sourcesafe-to-subversion/

This Version:

Changeset 16890 Resolves the individual VSS-checkins to atomic SVN commits via the approximate timestamp. We hope to promote this to a release version soon, but feel free to try, as people have been having good luck with it.
Written in C# using .NET 3.5
Utilizes SharpSvn and VSS Interop.
Preserves the username and revision datetime via direct editing of the revprops folder in the SVN repository. This requires direct file system access to the SVN repository and is not a recommended practice, but it works quite well and does not require editing the system clock or matching any usernames/passwords
Removes all VSS bindings and related files during the import
use VSS2005 for best results
support for tags

The original project was started by Doug and ported to C# by Tim Erickson.
