Get all files from VSS for a given date?


Is there a way I can ask Visual source safe to get all the files from a given date for a project? We don't use labels, so I can't roll back to a specific label and am hoping that I can somehow just call a certain date range to get the files as they existed on a specific date? Impossible?


Solution

  • As far as I know you have to use the get command at a command prompt, not the gui. Something like this should do:

    ss Get "$/AFolder" -R -Vd15-03-2009;2:00a
    

    The -R option makes the get recursive and the -vd option gets the version at the specified date.
