This new SCC VAPI replaces the Microsoft Source Code Control Interface (MSSCCI) API of older Visual Studio releases and makes it possible to replace all SCC handling within Visual Studio. Where the old SCC API required its implementation to always follow the CheckOut-CheckIn principle, the new SCC VAPI just passes individual requests to the SCC API. This allows implementations to fully replace the usual workflow with the Update-Merge workflow Subversion usually provides.
