    Hi Guys,

    I was wondering if anyone could recommend an on-line CVS archive for a small team of developers? (eg 2 developers at the minute)

    I know there's a few free ones out there, are they any good?

    What tools do you use for checking in/out software? eg web-based? windows GUI?

    Thanks

    Is there a reason you want to use CVS over something like SVN or Mercurial?

    Big fan of git and github myself.

    While looking into SVN I came across Google Code which offers free SVN hosting.

    Quite nice especially if its a small dev team.

    I use Mercurial. I keep my stuff on Codeplex and Github. Github supports private repositories. Codeplex is all open source stuff.

    Mercurial/Git are both well worth trying out.

    hi Guys,

    Thanks for the replies, its a few years since i've set up an archive, I'll look into the options above.

    Is anyone using google code? Is it ok to use it for private projects? or is it strictly for archiving open source projects?

    Thanks

    As i said Google Code is perfect for free hosting and svn.

    As far as I am aware you can set one up with a regular google account so that would show its ok for normal projects?


    Not private - my bad. not private at all.

    I just had a read of googles terms, it says that it's strictly for open source projects. Does that mean all code is viewable to the public?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,246 ✭✭✭conor.hogan.2


    Yes, actually on the project page there is a link that anyone can follow to view the code without being a project member.

    If your code is a proper project and not open source I would not use it.
