SUMMARY
=======
This article describes the two methods of sharing projects in SourceSafe. In
addition, the article shows how to identify shared projects and how they are
shared.
MORE INFORMATION
================
When you share Projects, SourceSafe shares all of the files in the project and
its subprojects if you select recursive.
While the multiple pages icon indicates that a file has been shared, you may
forget where the file is located in other projects. The LINKS command can
display the locations of the shared file in other projects.
Example 1 - Sharing the most recent version of the project
----------------------------------------------------------
1. Highlight the Location where you want to move the project. For this example,
suppose we create a new project in the $/ (root) project.
2. Select Share from the SourceSafe menu.
3. Highlight the $/<orig. project> project in the Projects: list box.
4. Select the Share push button.
5. Type the <new project> in the New Name text box.
6. Select the Recursive check box.
7. Select OK.
Example 2 - Sharing a specific version of a project
---------------------------------------------------
You can also select a specific version of a project from the history window. The
only difference between sharing a specific version of a file and sharing a
specific version of a project is the dialog that allows you to select where you
want to share the project.
