SCM Url

Because a colon is used for one of the variables (a windows path), a pipe (|) is used as the delimiter.

The general format for a VSS SCM Url is

scm:vss|path_to_repository|/module_name

The third variable is the path to the Visual Source Safe repository (where srcsafe.ini resides).

Note that a forward slash is necessary before the module name in the final variable.

Examples

scm:vss|C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VSS|/SomeProject
