Was it a management decision to put the code in Vault ?
It was my decision. There was nothing in place when I arrived and there will be nothing in place when I leave.
Maximilien wrote:
If yes, why remove it ?
It is not well understood / trusted.

Are you the only one that knows that the code is in Vault ?
No, but I am the only one that makes use of it.

Can't you teach the others on how to use Vault ?

This week is my last week at my current employer, so I thought I would share a few of my reasons for leaving. Obviously, I don't want to burn any bridges unnecessarily, so I'm going to be as diplomatic as possible here - I'll leave it up to you guys to add the commentary. ;) 1) I have been asked to remove all source code from Vault[^] and place it on the network, so that others can work on it.

And you're worried about bridges?

:laugh: It's sad that I've had to do the same thing. "David, can you export all the code from Subversion so this person can work on it? When they're done, they'll give it back to you so you can check it in if you want." My reaction was just :wtf:.

You may not work with that company again, but you may work with people that currently work there.

If it was SourceSafe (pre-2005) instead of SubVersion, perhaps they may have had a point when they said "so this person can work on it" :rolleyes:

whoa. Uh, thats some stupid folk you got there. I hope you have found a new employer that is not the storage facility for lost village idiots. My sympathies. I used to work for a employer like that (*cough* US government *cough*).
