SourceSafe for Unix (in short SSU) provides command-line access to local and remote Source Safe/VSS repositories through TCP.
Requirements:
SSU is divided into two components: a command-line Unix client and a windows-based server which runs on a machine with repository access. A single windows machine can multiplex any number of repositories and clients.
The Unix client "ss" requires only Perl >= 5.4 and network TCP port 5901 access to the server. The windows server "ssserv" requires Perl >= 5.6, but has only been tested with ActivePerl_ 5.8 (5.6 experienced stability problems). The server runs as a stand-alone process unless you use some service helpers (configuration as such is not described here). ssserv also requires the SourceSafe command-line client to be installed locally (usually installed automatically with the SourceSafe software).
What's New in This Release:
Internal hash function changed to MD5 (there were known problems with the old implementation).
0.7 declared stable.
