activerecord-import-sqlserver

activerecord-import-sqlserver is an for activerecord-import to provide support for SQL Server.

How does it work?

It's a bit hacky since SQL Server doesn't support <sequence_name>.nexval and doesn't accept NULL ids. To solve the problem if we find the reference to an [id] column in the columns to insert we split the value set into two sets and filter values who have an id set to NULL. Those where the id is null we simply remove this value, then two different inserts are performed.

Any improvements or a less hacky solution would be welcome.
