Source Safe just attempted to be a useless source control system. RTC tried to add issue tracking, automation, and other crap. It wanted to be truly terrible at everything.
But Source Safe was fantastically bad. I especially liked that its database file was limited to like 2GB. It was so bad that Microslop didn’t use it.
You’re the other person that used RTC?! I had heard there was another but I was starting to think it was just a legend.
I migrated an entire codebase from a combo of RCS, CVS, and Subversion. This was about 10 minutes before git started to hit in a big way.
I’d call it a dumpster fire but that really disrespects dumpster fires.
You mean it was worse than Microsoft Source Safe? The VCS that used to lose data?
