See results of "p4 changes //guest/robert_cowham/perforce/utils/vsstop4/..." for a listing of changes.

2001/12/20

- errors during the verify phase are now written to the logfile
- fixed issue on Windows 2000 where in some cases changes would
  be lost during the improve phase.

2001/5/22

- add check for basic permissions

2000/11/14

- undo mistaken quoting of SourceSafe command in readhist.pl

2000/09/22

- change to handle user names with spaces

2000/05/16

- remove construct which has become deprecated in Perl 5.6
- change a whole list of other nasty characters in labels to underscores

1999/12/15

- fix to handle setting client root when it contains spaces

1999/12/2
- be more strict about file and label names - %, *, ... not allowed

1999/7/9
- one byte fix provided by Mark Gressett (thank you thank you thank you)
  If you converted with the 1999/4/27 version then the labels imported
  from VSS may contain incorrect version# references.

1999/4/27
- buffer labelsync operations so that there is only one for each label.
  This should definitely speed things up for sites which label frequently.

1999/4/20
- modified readhist.pl to use -O@tempfile flag - this causes SourceSafe
  to not word wrap its output (yay!)
- change tempobj handling to only ask SourceSafe for head revision
  - this avoids spurious error messages
- disallow filenames with # or @ or unprintable characters

1999/4/9

- modified readhist.pl to use a heuristic which seems to mostly do the
  Right Thing with filenames output across multiple lines.  Of course,
  it would be better if Microsoft didn't produce ambiguous output
  in the first place!
- fixed weirdness with sortmeta.pl which could cause corruption of
  the changes file

1998/8/28

- in verify step get files as writable so that unlink() works, ensure
  slashes all point in the same direction in name from p4 fstat

1998/8/21

- disallow numeric labels
- fix verification script to use p4 fstat rather than p4 where

1998/8/14

- fixed date format problem with 98.2 (p4 change -f would fail on dates of
  the form yyyy/mm/dd  h:mm:ss - i.e. times before 10am)

1998/6/3

- fixed small typo in readhist.pl

1998/5/13

- incorporated many fixes and enhancements provided by
  Scott Blachowicz <sab@seanet.com> and Chris Meystrik <meystrik@cast.net>
  Thanks to everyone who ran tests on the initial version
