Just a follow up to last weeks posts. Thanks to everyone who replied! The part I was missing was the relative pathing issue. It was right before my eyes! Also, I was not aware at the time of the NantContrib VSS and have tested that as a variation to the default behavior.
Thanks Chuck -----Original Message----- From: David Reed [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, November 07, 2003 12:45 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [Draconet-users] VSS Working Directory My question for Chuck & Co. is "You're already using NAnt. Why not use the vssget task that's built into NAnt to put the source exactly where you want it?" Draco is great for watching VSS and firing a NAnt script which takes care of all of its own care and feeding (deleting everything the working directory, getting the latest source, etc.) without relying on Draco's copy of source. > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:draconet-users- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mark Griffiths > Sent: Friday, November 07, 2003 11:17 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: [Draconet-users] VSS Working Directory > > Hi > > Just to give a bit of background info: Draco was intentionally designed > to operate from a freshly checked out copy of the codebase.
