Hi,

Can you please let us know that how VSS 'labels' on different folders
can be migrated to SVN. Though we have moved all data along with
revision history but unable to retrieve Label information.

Also inform the name of the Label file present in VSS repository so we
can analyse.

Moreover, is there any limitation after migration data from VSS to
SVN. Please inform!

Thank you!

They should all be in your new svn repository under the labels/ folder.

No idea, sorry. Use your VSS client to see what's there...

Not really sure what you mean? Have you read the free online subversion
book? This will help you with using subversion properly, don't just try to
use it like VSS!
