Newbie Q: Change Tracking Comments in SSIS

[thermidor]

Hi All:

I am new to SSIS, but thave a lot of Oracle SP experience. In Oracle I would put a block of comments in the head of my packages to track change history. What is the best/suggested to do this in SSIS?

TIA,
Sven

Do you use any for of source control? For example, Visual Source Safe prompts for a comment when you check in a file (.dtsx package in this case).

We do use source control, but I was curious about other places for comments...

I can't think of anything else other than adding an annotation at the top of the Control Flow. It's basically a free-text field you can add to the display area of your Control Flow.
