First, unbind the project from VSS within Visual Studio, then run this script.
# This script removes VSS bindings and files from a VS Project

# First thing to do before running this script is to specify where the project is located
$Folder = "C:\dev\vs\2008\SalesSync"
#first clear the read-only flag from all files
get-childitem "$folder" -Recurse | % {
# Test for ReadOnly flag and remove if present
if ($_.attributes -band [system.IO.FileAttributes]::ReadOnly) {
$_.attributes = $_.attributes -bxor [system.IO.FileAttributes]::ReadOnly
}
}
#next delete all files that are *.suo, *.user, and *.*scc - we don't want them in TFS
Get-ChildItem $folder *.suo -Recurse -Force | Remove-Item -Force
Get-ChildItem $folder *.*scc -Recurse -Force | Remove-Item -Force
Get-ChildItem $folder *.user -Recurse -Force | Remove-Item -Force
#next get all the .sln file - and remove the VSS binding information
$files = Get-ChildItem $folder *.sln -Recurse
foreach ($file in $files) {
$fileout = $file.FullName + ".new"
Set-Content $fileout $null
$switch=0
Get-Content $file.FullName | % {
if ($switch -eq 0) {
if ($_ -eq " GlobalSection(SourceCodeControl) = preSolution") {
#we found the section to skip - so set the flag and don't copy the content
$switch=1}
else {
#we haven't found it yet - so copy the content
Add-Content $fileout $_
}
}
elseif ($switch -eq 1) {
if ($_ -eq " EndGlobalSection") {
#last line to skip - after it we start writing the content again
$switch=2}
}
else
{ #write remaining lines
Add-Content $fileout $_}
}
#remove the original .sln and rename the new one
$newname = $file.Name
Remove-Item $file.FullName
Rename-Item $fileout -NewName $newname
}
