Hi, I have worked with CVS and SVN but am new to VSS. I am running into this issue where if one developer deletes a file on his local or on the server, the other developers still havea copy of the file on their local. SVN deletes the local copy if the file is deleted on the server which is convenient but with VSS this is posing as a big problem to us. There are all these stale files unless each developer explicitely deletes the specified file on his local system. Please let me know if there a a way to do that. It will be a great help. Thanks in advance, Spb
There is no way with just VSS to do automatic synchronization of deleted/renamed files. You can do this if you're using VS2005+VSS2005 though (through Get/GetLatest functionality in VisualStudio) -- Alin Constantin This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.
