This tool analyzes source control bindings in visual studio solution files and merges them.
We have 2 solutions and hundreds of projects.
I migrated from VS 2008 SP1 to VS 2010 SP1 and was also receiving the error:
There appears to be a discrepancy between the solution's source control information . . .
I would open solution1, allow it to update the projects, then open solution2, only to get this error again.
I analyzed the solution files and found the following:
Root Cause:
solution1.sln and solution2.sln files are inconsistent with each other in regards to the project source control bindings.
Example:
solution1.sln
SccProjectUniqueName6 = Project1\Project1.csproj SccProjectName6 = \u0022$/Project1\u0022,\u0020HSBAAAAA SccLocalPath6 = Project1
solution2.sln
SccProjectUniqueName6 = Project1\Project1.csproj SccLocalPath6 = . SccProjectFilePathRelativizedFromConnection6 = Project1\
Solution:
I fixed this issue by manually modifying the solution files to be consistent in notepad. I copy and pasted the source control info from solution1.sln into solution2.sln for projects they had in common.
I eventually wrote a small utility to automate this.
