RE: vss2cvs

[Bert Robbins]

Steven,

 

I have found that it is much easier, when dealing with VSS, to do activities in smaller chunks. Having previously, within the last six months, performed numerous migrations of data from VSS to CVS I found that converting projects, and even sub-projects, works better than trying to convert the entire VSS database at one time.

 

If you have $/proj-A, $/proj-b and $/proj-c in your repository then you would want to do each one individually rather than doing $/.

 

Thanks

Bert

Hey guys,

I'm attempting to run the VSS2CVS Script on a rather large archive.  It makes it about half way through starts to say that CVS has no knowledge of the file and that I need to fix the error before I continue.  Any suggestions on this or even more information on how to debug this would be great.

Thanks,
Steven
