Google Code + SVN or GitHub + Git [closed]

Answer 1

It sounds like Google Code is a better fit for your needs, namely its use of SVN (Mercurial now, but SVN since thats what you are most comfortable with). As for its other features that you dont care so much about, then yes you can disable them by disabling their tab in the UI.

I am a fan of Google Code - its simple and straight-forward.

Answer 2

Google Code Project Hosting now supports Git.

Answer 3

Github now supports Subversion http://slashdot.org/submission/1232328/

Answer 4

These are answers for Google Code (which I use and am very happy with):

But I don't want to host any binaries in their websites

So don't - nothing in the Google terms of service requires you to do so.

I also don't have the need for wiki pages

The wiki pages, like almost all the tabs on a GC site, can be disabled and hidden.

Why not create a Google Code page for your project (it takes about 2 minutes and it's free) and play with the admin options to see if it does what you want?

Answer 5

It is clear that git is winning and it is great tool (but it needs time). With google code git support, there is no real big difference between github/gcode . If you like to have private repository and public on same provider than github is way too go. Also I am using Eclipse and egit plugin (3.7.x) is part of eclipse project, but in most cases needs to be installed as plugin.

Answer 6

SVN was the first type of source control I ever used. It worked for a while, but I never looked back after switching to GIT. It sounds like the biggest issue stopping you from going to git is a good tool to use. I used tortoiseSVN for a while, and tried tortoiseGit when I made the transition but was less than satisfied.

Give Git Extensions a try, it is by far the best gui interface to git on ANY operating system.
