If a project has many subfolders, how to configure sourcesafe so that setting
working folder for the project will affect all the subfolders INCLUDING the
one which have been set up with working folder.
For example, a project has subfolders: folder1, folder2, folder3. The
project's working folder is set d:\project1 and the working folders for
folder1, folder2, folder3 are d:\project1\folder1, d:\project1\folder2,
d:\project1\folder3. For some reasons, I need to temporarily set folder1,
folder2 to d:\temp\project1\folder1 and d:\temp\project1\folder2. Later on,
I want to set the project folder to d:\final\project1 and I want the
subfolders will be set d:\final\project1\folder1, d:\final\project1\folder2,
and d:\final\project1\folder3. Currently, my sourcesafe will only set
folder3 to d:\final\project1\folder3 since it has not been set to different
working folder individually.
Thanks.

After doing that, you may need to edit the ss.ini file manually so that you
get the normal propagation of directory mapping (remove everything except
the d:\project1 mapping).
Depending on how many operations you need to do with the temporary folders,
you could also just type the folder names when prompted for get, etc.
instead of changing the working folder itself.
