What good is the VSS 2005 "Web Projects" feature?   

What is the purpose of the "Enable Web Projects" feature and the "Deploy  a 
Project to a Server" features of VSS 2005? It seems like a glorified file 
copy copying everything including .cs files to the server. The documentation 
doesn't say much.

Hi James,

Visual SourceSafe has several features that are designed to support Web 
sites. If you need a Web project, your database administrator can set up a 
Visual SourceSafe project for your site. The Web project differs from other 
database projects only in the icon that is displayed in Visual SourceSafe 
Explorer. After the Web project is set up, you can add your HTML, graphics, 
and supporting files, just as you would for a regular Visual SourceSafe 
project.

Please check the following links for more information about why enableing 
web projects and how to enable it.
