Versioning Projects in Visual Source Safe

I am currently working on Phase 1 of my project and all files are checked into Visual Source safe. How do I version this project as phase 1.

I know if it is a single file we can roll back changes etc.

After I start working on Phase 2. I should be able to get the phase I project and make any changes as required.

Please help

VSS has a feature called "Share and Pin". It is the closest thing it has to branching. I've found it to take a long time, slows down access later on, and hard to work with.

But I would suggest starting by looking in the help for that topic.

If you want to make changes to both Phase 1 and Phase 2, your only option is to make a copy of the entire project.

If you don't need to go back and make changes to Phase 1 and will only ever need to get the code for it, you can use a label.
