SSAnalyzer for SourceSafe by TSASG

News Release - 2005.09.10

TSA Software Group (TSASG) announces the release of SSAnalyzer 1.0.

SSAnalyzer is a unique tool for Visual SourceSafe that will identify and assist the user in correcting improperly branched or duplicated files.

Using advanced text algorithms to identify non-effective file differences (formatting, comments, etc), SSAnalyzer displays effective vs. non-effective changes for closely matching files, making it much easier for the user to find those few REAL differences among thousands of lines of code.

Typical file and code redundancy can be reduced by an average of 20%, greatly reducing maintenance problems, increasing the speed of SourceSafe, and enhancing the accuracy of third-party source code reporting packages.
