List of bugs fixed in SourceSafe 2005 GDR

  • [アーティクル]

I'm a big fan of the work Brian Harry has done to make our processes more transparent.  Nevertheless, to badly misquote one of my other bosses, "transparency for the sake of transparency is soo 2006."  I chuckled again writing this, because there's a grain of truth there: telling you I produced 4 widgets per furlong yesterday doesn't make your experience with Microsoft dev tools any better.

With that principle in mind, I want to broadcast details about the GDR I just announced.  More than that, I want it to be useful.  To that end:

  • I'm including an ID with each bug.  This should allow you to easily refer to bugs among yourselves and when asking us questions.  I considered using the internal bug IDs, but
    • They would be huge numbers, since it's developed in the same TFS team project as all of Orcas.  Huge numbers are meaningless to you, and possibly offensive to the Orcas folks ;-)
    • They would be ordered by Creation Date.  I want my IDs ordered by Resolved Date so that I can easily append to the list as more bugs are fixed.
  • I'm including all bugs regardless of source: DTS bugs, bugs opened on Connect, and bugs opened internally.  (DTS bugs are what get created when a case bubbles up from calls to Customer Support.  Read Brian's post for more details & caveats.)
  • I'm including KB article numbers wherever possible.  All DTS bugs that result in a hotfix eventually get a KB article.  We may write articles for other bugs too depending on time & interest...no promises though.

In case you're wondering, there is a pretty even mix between the sources of bugs that I mentioned above.  To be exact:

  • DTS: 22

  • Other CSS customers: 6

  • Connect: 11

  • Internal testing: 16

(charts and statistics are as of 6/6/2007 - I will update this)

"Other customers" are bugs that were reported to Customer Support Services but opened outside the DTS process, either because the issue was not severe enough or the customer didn't want to pursue a hotfix.  So in sum, 39/55 or 71% of the bugs we are fixing come directly from you.  Keep'm coming!

update 8/6/2007: added #56-57.  I'm not going to recalc the statistics.

update 11/16/2007: added #58-63.  No stats recalc.  These will be in the final release only, not the CTP we shipped in July.

    This is super cool...I hope there are similar lists for some of the other GDRs and SPs. It's so hard to make out what fix went in otherwise! Good stuff!

    This looks good, thanks! Any plans to allow more than 260 characters for the file path?

    Were "check out local version" options enabled in this release? One of the options is... "Check Out the local version, and merge the database version with your changes?" http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1619458&SiteID=1 Thanks.

    Joe: no.  Most Windows file APIs don't support >260 characters.  Not even our big brother Team Foundation expanded this limit. Kun: I believe this was fixed as part of #29.  Let me doublecheck that we're talking about the same thing -- I will post to that forum thread.

    Does this mean that we can now host the visual source safe web service on Vista now?

    Patrick: that's up to the Windows team.  We need IIS 7 to support WebDAV.  I'm hoping we won't have to wait for SP1.
