[SSMS 2005] CVS plugin?

Question

Currently, I produce various .sql scripts (sprocs mainly) and have to copy them to another location where I had originally checked out a CVS project before I can add/update/remove the CVS repository accordingly (using TortoiseCVS). It's tedious, so I've been tasked with investigating if SSMS could use CVS natively.

I've been googling after finding the Plug-in Selection in the Options > Source Control dialog, but everything thing seems to revolve around SourceSafe. I'm not familiar with it - is this a Microsoft concurrent version tracking software? Or could it be a wrapper to provide access to various software (CVS, Subversion, etc).

What, if any, are the options here for making the link between SSMS and CVS?

Answer 1

I found the following CVS SCC providers:

• Pushok's CVS SCC proxy
• TamTam CVS SCC
• Jalindi - Igloo

I found them to be what I'd call beta at best, and decided that it wasn't worth pursuing when I could copy/paste files & use TortoiseCVS.
