It's a closed-source, undocumented API that you can only get access to
by signing a Microsoft NDA. From the WinMerge API:
SCC API is closed API (no public documentation available) some
IDE's (e.g. Visual Studio) use. There apparently have couple
of reverse-engineered free implementations for SCC API. Status
of those are unknown.
WARNING: Be very sure you are not submitting any code behing
NDA for WinMerge. WinMerge is Open Source so it is not legal
to do. And what is worse it would prevent anybody reading that
code working with SCC (and perhaps also VCS) support.
