I then tried the most recent nightly build (30-Apr-2008). It produced a much shorter list of errors (lines beginning with ## were added from command output):

svnadmin load ran with no errors or warnings.


Unfortunately, when I attempted to compare different versions of files in the svn repository, only the head version had any content. Earlier versions had log entries but no content. When I looked at the dumpfile, it too seemed to contain only one version of each file.


Here is my vss2svn command:

vss2svn --vssdir "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\VSS" > vss2svn.log


And here is my svnadmin load command:

       set svnadmin="C:\Program Files\Subversion\bin\svnadmin.exe"

       set repos="C:\svn\OmniumVB"

set dumpfile="C:\Users\shadow\Downloads\Subversion\vss2svn-dumpfile.dat"

       %svnadmin% load %repos% < %dumpfile%


Are my expectations correct (that I should see my revision history)?

Did I omit some key parameters?

Is there another version I should try (other than 0.11.0 Alpha 1 and 30-Apr-2008)?

Does vss2svn work with Vista?

Any other suggestions?

Vista is not the issue here; for whatever reason your database does not have the old versions of its files. Are you able to see them in VSS Explorer? Do these items have the "keep only latest version" checkbox set?
