ok. not that old, but let's think
Since '98 I put anything important in VSS, switching '14 to git. The VSS data is still in some sideboard (just like the VFP code at MS), git is complete anyway
If I
- create a new repo
- loop to
- automate to read the old crap from VSS
- for each change, create a commit with datetime (what is available from VSS)
- add the recent git atop the same way
After that, I just need to find the tool. :)
Somehow I was to lazy to do it '14 while switching to git. I fear I will still be to lazy. :)
