yes ... how did you know we used visual source safe?
- HWR_14 3y agoBy the mid-90's VSS supported exclusively locking files and requiring files to be locked before working on them.
- dabraham1248 3y agoWell, kinda? We did that. Then we discovered that about 10% of the time it didn't actually lock anything. So we included yelling across the room into our "grab it exclusively from VSS". Yes, we had MS support, and they looked into it, and eventually basically shrugged (I'm told. I wasn't the one working with them).
