Hi,
It seems CVSSCC has a problem adding soltions, projects and project sub-folders whose names contain dots and/or spaces.
I originally thought it was any file name containing spaces or any folder containing dots and/or spaces. Igor informs me, however, that this is not a limitation of CVS.
CVS SCC will fail with a message about the folder for the project, etc, not existing on the server.
From this point on, it is impossible to add that project/solution/subfolder and and files it contains to source control. Following this worakaround can solve this problem.
Workaround:
1) Check in everything I can 2) Close the solution 3) Backup the solution folder 4) Release and remove the code folder 5) \"Open the solution from source safe\", via CVSSCC in VS.NET 6) Close the solution. 7) Remove the CVS administration folders from the backup of the project that would not add 8) Copy it into the new solution folder 9) Manually add the folder and sub folders of the problem project using WinCVS 10) Release and remove the code folder 11) \"Open the solution from source safe\", via CVSSCC in VS.NET 12) Copy into the folder the backup of the problem project again 13) Add the project to the solutions 14) Check in the solution and the new project.
