INFO: Actions That Perform an Implicit GET

MORE INFORMATION

The following commands perform a GET when they are executed from the command line or the Visual SourceSafe Explorer: This is by design. SourceSafe assumes that changes made to files in a project should be echoed to the project's working folder (directory). The GET does not happen under two conditions:

1. If there is no working folder set for the project in the Visual SourceSafe Explorer.
2. When you use the -G- switch on the command line.

For some of these operations, the Visual SourceSafe Explorer provides a way to override the default behavior. For more information, please refer to the User's guide and Online Help for the individual commands.
