VSS history is missing

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened this issue 10 years ago • 2 comments

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a new VSS database and create a project in it.
2. Save the source code of a project in this VSS project and do some changes.
3. Then run the vss2git application and put the details of VSS project 
accordingly.
4. Run the vss2git application. 

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The VSS history should be present in the new git repository. The vss2git 
application makes a new git repository, but the VSS history is missing.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
The version of the vss2git is 1.0.10  

Please provide any additional information below.
I am testing it on Windows XP PC and we want to put git repositary on NAS 
drive. I am sending you an image file which tells you the VSS setting details, 
which I was used on vss2git application

Thanks,
Amit Raj

I tested a simple example with vss2git to analyze another problem, and for me 
the history is included just fine.

See attached an example:
1. A simple VSS database with two files in it (a text file and a binary file), 
each with two revisions
2. The output of vss2git

The git database contains all the vss revisions and I'm able to get the older 
versions of the files.

I have a similar issue. With an old VSS repository. There are messages under "Action" fields in the history. And also there was labeling used to comment parts. Any chance to get messages converted from here?
