SourceSafe Projects - Initial Setup
I'm in the process of setting up and adding projects to SourceSafe for the first time. The websites are hierarchal in structure. For example, most of the pages are in the root directory but their are also folders such as Includes.
Question:
1 When adding a website do I have to create 2 projects for every website. One containing the files in the root and a subproject that would contain the include folder? I guess my question is can I add a folder to SourceSafe project without making it a seperate project? It just doesn't sound logical to call the include folder a new project when its part of the same website.
2. Do I have to do everything manually. I.E. Manually create a project for each folder and manually add the files.

In answer to my own question I found out through Windows Explorer I can drag and drop entire folders including sub directories into Visual SourceSafe. The key is to check the recursive box on the dialog that asks for web comment. The existing apps were created in non-microsoft technologies so could not add them through Visual Studio.
