Our team is migrating from VSS 6.0 to TFS 2008 to be used for source control purposes. I am wondering if anyone has any experience with this migration. In particular, we are interested in preserving the history of files in source control, as well as any other potential gotchas.
This is fairly easy once setup. You will first need to create a usermap.xml. This will map your VSS users to your TFS2008 users. Then you create a project configuration file. I would post examples of mine but I can’t get the XML to post.
The project configuration file will point to the usermap XML file. Then all you have to do is type the command ‘VSSConverter migrate settings.xml’ to migrate or ‘VSSConverter analyze settings.xml’ to analyze the project. I suggest you to analze before migrating the project.
