From some information, I learned about VSS development history: In 1992, Brian Harry and Ken Felder, Larry Iversen created one Tree Software together, and the main product named SourceSafe. They worked in a company called Da Vinci Systems in California, Brian is the company 's VP. One Tree Software's SourceSafe 2.0 is selected in the "Utilities" item selection of the 13th year of the Software Development magazine. The award-winning product of the project was PURE Software's Purify 1.0 (a memory leak check tool). This product is already part of Rational Suite Enterprise, named Rational Purify. The famous products at the same time also include the Stirling Group's InstallShield 1.0. May 1993, SourceSafe 2.1 for Macintosh was released. SourceSafe for the Macintosh Price is $ 295 (a user), $ 1,995 (ten users), and $ 8,145 (fifty users). In November 1994, Microsoft acquired One Tree Software. Brian Harry became the development manager of Visual SourceSafe. Since then, in 1999, Brian Harry became the founding member of Common Language Runtime Team, and now is a CLR's PUM. In February 1995, 2/14 Valentine's Day, Microsoft announced Visual SourceSafe 3.1 In October 1996, Microsoft announced Visual SourceSafe 5.0 in June 1998, Microsoft announced Visual Studio 6.0, which included Visual SourceSafe 6.0. Since then, the version number is upgraded to 6.0e, but there is no big upgrade.
In the 1990s, it is an era of rapid development of computer in North America. In addition to so many new products, companies, so many purchases. Moreover, the United States in the nineg of the United States has already been very developed, although there is no broadband. Look at the 1991, 92 Email, I feel very incredible: http://www.sunmanagers.org/archives/1990/ China's computer level is not a little bit behind the United States. It is important to know that Americans have been in Source Control and Daily Build in 1996.
