How well does Plastic SCM import from SourceSafe?

I'm evaluating SCM's for a potential move away from SourceSafe. Plastic SCM makes a good impression. I saw that it has an importer from SourceSafe but couldn't find a lot of information about how it handles some of VSS specialities - namely "Shared files". Anyone have experience with 开发者_如何学JAVAthat particular aspect or this migration in general?

Once you move away from VSS you'll find that the "shared files" concept doesn't exist "as is" in other systems.

That being said, I bet you need to "upgrade" to a "component based development" model, which is a cool name to describe what you're looking for.

There are two interesting links you should read:

• Component Oriented Development: http://www.plasticscm.com/infocenter/technical-articles/component-based-development.aspx
• Migration guide from VSS to Plastic SCM: http://www.plasticscm.com/releases/3.0.1/migration-guides/vss_migration.pdf

Hope it helps.
