QUESTION
I'm trying to convert a Visual SourceSafe Repository to Git while keeping the exact version history. So I've tried using https://github.com/trevorr/vss2git. It worked, but it didn't keep the history. So I tried using TFS as a middleman. I used The latest version of TFS and its upgrade wizard but it didn't keep the history, so I tried with TFS 2013 (How to migrate VSS 2005 to TFS 2015?) and its upgrade wizard, but still no history. I'm pretty desperate now, and I don't know where the problem lies, as I even analyzed my VSS repository, and no errors were found. I've read that I could also try using SVN as the middleman, so I'll do that, but I'm skeptic.

Answered 2018-Sep-06 at 14:16You can try https://github.com/azarkevich/VssSvnConverter, but it is not user friendly. (Despite it`s name it can convert VSS to Git)
Also this tool does not keep history of file/directory moves/renames. File will have history with latest name.
