Getting started with Source Safe
Hi,
I am in the midst of a multi-year project in which I still have no source code management tool. I'd used Source Safe as a contract, but feared that a mistake upon setting up the envirnonment would cost me dearly later. But now that I have my first test site running and the need to add a multi-day enhancement, I worry that have two "forks" in my source code will lead to other problems, not the least of which is coding the same things twice.
How difficult would it be to add Source Safe? Are there configuration options that, if incorrectly set, could cause me problems later?
Could anyone give me some advice on this?
Thanks,
Bob
