Alex,
Try www.laine.org:8080/cvs/vss2cvs/

I think his ISP is blocking http inbounds on port 80.

The site for vss2cvs (http://www.laine.org/cvs/vss2cvs/) is down, and
judging by a previous message to this mailing list
(http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/info-cvs/2001-September/019557.html) has been
since at least 4 Sep 2001.

Does anyone have a copy of this script that they could email, or better yet,
post somewhere?

Thanks.

BTW, I know there is an old version of it at
http://alexm.here.ru/cvs-nserver/download/contrib/vss-to-cvs/jnairn/ but
this is an old unenhanced version.

Are you changing from VSS to CVS? Can you tell me your reasons? I'm trying
to convince here at the company where I work to do the same, so all
arguments I can get are usefull

Thanks in advance

RE: Anyone have VSS2CVS?

2001-10-12 Thread Gianni Mariani


We *have* changed to CVS.

Some of the reasons.
- cross platform support (win32/unix/mac)
- has all features we cared about in VSS
- easy remote access
- concurrent model development
- easy handling of branches
- easy merging
- easy to write tools to co-ordinate with bug system - bugzilla
- various web browser interfaces - cvsweb, bonsai
- integration with build monkey - tinderbox
- reliability
- Handles binary files despite what Greg Wood says.

Perhaps VSS has some of these features, but many developers were
bitten by bugs in VSS and refused to use them.  VSS became a noose
around our neck.

Now that we have moved to CVS, people are able to work from home,
from remote locations, on their lap-top while travelling.  CVS is
not perfect by any means but it sure makes it very easy to automate
many tasks.

I didn't need to convince anyone.
