Microsoft Visual SourceSafe

Publisher's Description

From Microsoft:

Visual SourceSafe is the ideal version control system for any development team using Microsoft Visual Studio .NET. Historically, problems within the team development environment stem from the inability to work comfortably in a setting sensitive to their projects and source code. While every project requires an adequate level of software management, the costs and overhead associated with file-based version control often outweigh the benefits. By providing project-oriented software management, Visual SourceSafe enables teams to develop with the confidence that their projects and files will be protected. It's simple enough to use right out of the box, and it's integrated with the development environment developers already work in.

Integrated features of Visual SourceSafe enable developers to access the full power of team development features?all from within the familiar Visual Studio environment they already use. Many features trigger automatically, such as when a file is about to be changed, providing a safety net for team members and ensuring the protection of the project.

Visual SourceSafe also provides an extensive feature set designed to save time and money through reliable source code control. It enables development teams to automatically protect and track their most valuable source code, documentation, binaries, and all other file types as they change throughout the software life cycle. For example, check in and check out file locking securely protects files from accidental overwrite by preventing more than one user from modifying the same file at once.

    "End of Life product"

    January 6, 2012  |   By XavierCookie

    Version: Microsoft Visual SourceSafe 2005

    Pros

    Was a great version control product in its time -- which was the 1990's to the early 2000's. Easy to use, integrates with many development environments.

    Cons

    Not very usable over the Internet. Branching and merging are not well supported.

    Summary

    There are newer alternatives like Vault, Subversion, Veracity, SourceAnywhere, Git, TFS, Mercurial.

    Some of these, like Vault, have a VSS import.
