Why Migrate from SourceSafe?
SourceSafe is discontinued
Microsoft ended support years ago. No security patches, no bug fixes. Every day you run SourceSafe, your code is at risk of data corruption and loss.
Full history matters
It's not enough to migrate just the latest files. Castellum preserves every revision, author, and timestamp — enabling git blame, bisect, and full audit trails.
Git is the industry standard
GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps — every modern CI/CD tool is built around Git. Migrate once and unlock the entire modern development ecosystem.
Features
Castellum goes beyond basic migration tools:
- ✓ Preserves author, date, and comment for every revision
- ✓ Groups individual file edits into atomic commits
- ✓ Rebuilds renames, moves, and deletes of files and folders
- ✓ Removes SourceSafe bindings from Visual Studio project files
- ✓ Wizard-based GUI — no command line, no XML config hacking
- ✓ Works around SourceSafe database corruption that breaks other tools
- ✓ Does not require SourceSafe Administrator access
- ✓ Import all projects or cherry-pick specific ones
- ✓ Skip or partially migrate large binary files
- ✓ Works with any Git version, including the latest
