ezds.com : Free SourceSafe tool sspurge : Generate a batch file to purge deleted files.

sspurge

Purpose	Projects and files marked as deleted in the SourceSafe database no longer show up in the Sourcesafe explorer tree, but still take up physical space in the database. This small helper utility can be run periodically to generate a batch file to purge and free up physical space for deleted files. It takes as input the 'ssdelist.txt' file generated by ssdelist, which should be run first. To prevent accidental execution of the output file it is written with extension '.bar'. You should only rename it to '.bat' after you have inspected and verified the contents!
SS	Tested with SourceSafe V5.0 V6.0.
OS	Windows NT/2K/XP Command line utility.
Usage	Either manually run ss cp $/{ProjectPath} ss dir -D -R > ssdelist.txt Or run ssdelist Then run sspurge ssdelist.txt
Outputs	purge.bar. Sample content: ss purge "$/Test/Project1/date.java" -I- -opurge.log ss purge "$/Test/Project1/time.java" -I- -opurge.log
Installation	Copy the program into the directory where you want to run it. It's stand-alone and requires no configuration or support.
