I haven't, ever since installing SoS a few years back, and realizing how much time i'd been wasting in Visual Studio trying to manage source control (or just waiting for VS to connect and update its little status icons...). I'm much, much more productive leaving all source files writeable, and waiting until check-in time to merge. But for those of you that do use it, what are your reasons for doing so?

I've always been used to VSS and integration with the IDE. I'm not a fan of VSS, but I just like the simplicity of being able to deal with it right in the IDE. Jeremy Falcon

I use the shell extension that came with tortoise svn. It's pretty cool.
I only read CP for the articles. Code-frog System Architects, Inc.

VSS 2005 and VS2005 are great together, I can connect to different VSS2005 using HTTP, so many people can work in one project remotly. It's great! Al

What i'm asking is, why? What do you gain that way vs. using the stand-alone client?

Lazyness I guess. Start typing code, will checkout the file, you can always see the status of the file in the project window without changing programs. When closing the project, will auto check all files into VSS for safe keeping. Al

Nor used integrated scc for a while, as Visual Studio doesn't get on with .svn directories when using web projects. Ankh (http://ankhsvn.tigris.org/servlets/ProjectDocumentList?folderID=4013&expandFolder=4013&folderID=2955[^]) can now handle them apparently, so might go back to it. Might be handy, as I almost never remember to do svn renames / moves. Ryan

Naw... this way, people will see a gray post in The Lounge, and think "wow, he must have posted something interesting". By the time they figure it out, they'll already have read it... ;)

Doesn't that make the history of each file almost useless? Don't you get a new version every time you edit the file in a development session?

You don't need to use that feature, The editor asks you if you want to check the files in. You can say no or cancel and then check in with comments ( also the admin can force comments). I normally add a label before a build and I check out history by label. Cheers Al

So true! I always check out the grey coloured posts just to see what someone said that upsets someone else.:->

I use AnkhSVN to add SVN integration to VS2005 and it has worked very well for me. I never took the time to learn the full set of SVN commands so using Tortise and AnkhSVN have worked out great for me.
