I believe you can use "-overwrite" and it will work, but this was not documented in v1.2

Go to Help->About in the client, and see what the version number is, then go to http://vaultserver/VaultService and check the version number of the server (it is listed in the html page that gets displayed by default there).

If you are connecting to vaultdemo.sourcegear.com, it is currently running the 2.0 version of our server, so you will need to get our 2.0 client from http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic.php?t=69

This is a bug that is fixed in our 2.0 version of the command line client.

Thanks for reporting it - the best bug reports are the ones we've already fixed

OK, that's a good clue. I'll try this out with different timezones. Do you manually change your timezone when travelling, or does it get automagically set when you login to a network? Did the 4 files get overwritten because you had set the Get latest to default to Overwrite (due to the frustration w...

Hmm. Bring up the standalone GUI client, and find the project file in the repository, and see what its status is. It may be that the IDE changed the file without you knowing about it?

Also, I'm guessing you are using Visual Studio 2003?

Get will not overwrite a file if "Attempt Automatic Merge" is on IF you have made changes locally to the file, and the new contents of the file cannot be merged without conflicts. You should check the status of the file (see Vault Properties from the source control menu). It might say Rene...

Here are some of the competing factors that affect whether to use separate repositories or not: 1. Your performance in any single repository will be much better if you break projects into separate repositories. The fewer nodes in your tree and the fewer working folders Vault needs to keep track of, ...

Yes, this would be handy. We'll add it to our feature list.

Thanks

Yes, this has been requested before, and we have it on our list of things to do (allow deletion of users with no history information). Unfortunately, it won't make it for 2.0 We also need an option to not show inactive users in history too. So, sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but there isn't a w...

Good points, all around. I'll add this as a feature request to our DB.

Does this work the same way in Vault's GUI client? (When you uncheckout the file, it is deleted?) When you undo the checkout in the GUI client, you have the choice to delete, revert, or leave the file. The last thing you chose in the GUI client will happen in the IDE too, which is a known bug in 1.2.

Man, we really need to move our FAQ over here :) http://www.sourcegear.com/vault/support/faq/faq_trouble.asp#backup Here's the text: -------- When I backup the Vault repository, the file goes to my system32 directory. Can I change this? Where the Vault repository backups are stored is determined by ...

If IIS is installed after the .Net framework, The Vault Service will not run because the .Net Framework installation creates IIS mappings for ASP.NET file extensions. For example, VaultService.asmx will not load as a web page, but instead the client will attempt to download it, because IIS doesn't r...

Build scripts are often designed to label a folder's contents within source control and then do a "get by label" to a local build folder before actually doing the build. This allows others to later see which version of a file or folder are associated with a given build, and also ensures th...
