How do you disable frontpage file sharing in VS.NET ?

In the projects propety pages, Web Settings. Good luck though! It seems to support only a single webdirectory with no sub directories . It also doesnt seem to allow add projects that are not in the main soltuions base directory... I'm not really sure what it is as the author has not replied to my emails...

After filling out a survey asking questions about my current project (over 100 files) I figured it was time to look into some sort of source control. Your tutorial made life very easy for me!
I just wish most software wouldn't barf with drives created by subst (ie P: => D:\Projects\ )
Thanks again,
James

Thanks for reminding me of the handy good ol' DOS commands, they seem to get lost in the Windows world.

I like your article.
I don't know what's wrong with it. I can't open this website.
So could you upload the software to codeproject or tell me where to download
it, does it have some mirror sites?
Anybody?

It works fine for me. It doesn't list any mirrors. The author did not write igloo, and does not have the right to offer it on CP.

It seems to be checking stuff in and out, but when I try to show history or differences, it does nothing - have you used these facilities at all ?

History is outputted to the Source COntrol Output, ugly, but it is there
Doing diffs are not a problem here. What diff program are you using? Are you selecting a version previous to the version you are trying to diff? I found WinDiff to be quite satisfactory.
ALso, another tip. Avoid spaces at all cost. CVS does not like spaces and will fail to work on a *nix system if you were to move it. Also webapps are a pain in the butt. I have tried to contact the author of the inteface, but no reply yet...was hoping some C++ person could perhaps "continue" what he has started on. There is an older source package available...Also I have dumped the latest CVS NT build into the Igloo dir to match that of my "remote" CVS server.
Hope this helps It works for me

of finding out the true Straight Dope.
All this talk of CVS
it seems to be an *awful* mess...
VSS is my trusted friend;
why, pray tell, should this now end?
It all seems much the same to me:
check out / check in / update / repeat.
And yet CVS is set on high,
while VSS is left to die.
There must be a reason! You must have a clue?
Please, help me out, tell me - WHAT should i do?
ok, ok... it's been a *long* day.

LOL, alright then, back to normal. I just want to know, what are the big advantages of CVS over Visual Source Safe? What are *your* reasons for going with CVS, and what features would you miss if you had to go to VSS? I'm fairly new to source control, and haven't used anything but VSS to date, so i'm just curious as to what i'm missing...

None, I havent used VSS before, but it has been highly recommend. Features like the History dialog has not been implemented, but you can allways another win client for CVS for that.

I have used CVS for 1 day now, but have been reading about it a bit more. There are quite alot of features in CVS that is not present in VSS as I can make out of it. The documentation of the MS SCC API is under NDA so very little documentation can be found on this.
My recommendation will probably be to stick with VSS if u have it else, if you are just looking for a SCC system (or just a cut-down local SCC like described in the article), CVS will do.

1. At first the workflow is a little bit different:
With VSS you will have to do a checkout, before you start working on a file and afterwards you will have to checkin the changes.
Using CVS, you will only make changes to the file without telling the system about and so without locking the file. When you are finished with your changes you will submit those changes to the repository.
IMHO this is a more comfortable way of working.
2. The more important thing is safety: I have often read about problems with the VSS database, but never cared about it, because I didn't believe they were really exisiting -- I just thought, those were arguments of thoes *NIX fanatics that wanted to obtrude us there hardcore command line tools
But recently, I had to see that they were right: The VSS database has been corrupted: Submitting changes resulted in empty files in the database and checking those out overwrote the original sources on our local workstations! It took me more than a day to repair the stupid VSS database (just take a look at all those unusable file names in the db) with the MS provided reparation tool and afterwards several source versions were lost. This is really not what I am expecting a SourceSafe to do!
I've never heard (or experienced) such problems with CVS. And even if there will be a problem, it will be much more easier to solve, because the CVS database is easier to understand than the VSS stuff (clear file names with pure ASCII content).
3. Last but not least, the automatic conflict resolution of CVS is much more better than the one of VSS. If me and my colleague are making changes to projects (the .dsp file of a project) at the same time (both have the files checked out), i.e. one adds a file and anotherone removes a file, VSS will not be able to merge the changes correctly.
Hope this'll help you a little bit...
