Take a look at the Microsoft Visual SourceSafe Tasks.

They are optional tasks, so you might have to add libraries to your ant installation if the task is not found. In the event that they are not already installed, details about optional tasks can be found here.

<vsscheckout vsspath="$/ANT_TEST"
         localpath="D:\ANTTEST"
         label="V.1.0"
         recursive="true"
         login="bob,123"/>
