Every time I open my *.ssmssqlproj in SSMS i get the message:

The source control provider associated with this solution could not be found. The projects will be treated as not under source control.Do you want to permanently remove the source control bindings from the projects?

Even if I press "Yes", I need getting the message. Is there a way around this?

I had this same problem and solved it by following these instructions:

I went into Tools > Options > Source Control menu, saw that my source control provider was set to None. Once I set to use Microsoft Visual Source Safe everything was happy and good to go.

    Visual Studio does not allow me to choose this option, even though I've used Git before. Something else is going on.

  • In my case, I just chose 'Git' even though I'm not using Git. The error message has disappeared, which is all I wanted.

I encountered the same issue. Initially, my source control was correctly set to Git. However, to troubleshoot, I switched the source control to TFS, closed Visual Studio, and then reopened it. Surprisingly, the source control reverted back to Git automatically—Git being the source control for my project—and the issue disappeared. I suspect that the latest update to Visual Studio may have introduced a glitch. Changing the settings seemed to reset Visual Studio's configuration and resolved the problem.
