Can I use Source Safe over the Internet?

Question

Can I use Source Safe over the Internet?

Would you do it?

Answer 1

The original site was specially created for this - and I was a very good product, if you recall.

I would not use sourceafe if I had a choice. Do a search on this site for more details. He was beaten to death.

Other popular products are subversion / svn, mercurial, and git. Of course, there are other commercial products that cost money. One of them is the sponsor of this site.

EDIT

If you can choose another tool / product for one of the others, but you can do it with sourceafe.

Answer 6

I found that VSS 2005 works fine through a VPN over a high speed connection. There is a way to access it through HTTP. I think this is an installation option that sets up a website for this in IIS.

Answer 7

No, I wouldn’t. Why not use something more reliable?

Answer 8

Yes it is possible. My company does.
