What version control tool(s) do you use?

We had a problem with only having ports 80/443 and CAD. We wanted a centralized CAD server that we could access from wherever, but that didn't pan out (so we set up a small network of our CAD computers when we work on that.) Apache has an SVN thing, which works on port 80, but I'm not sure about its limitations. I like Git because it doesn't have to be centralized. Just go into a directory, `git --init`, and you're set. If you do make it centralized so you don't have to do it sneakernet, you can have a cool web interface like this: http://repo.or.cz/ . Can't show you ours, because of Kevin's code. *shrugs*

Ok, Linux based probably wasn't the best term, but I don't own any Linux boxes and really have almost no experiance with Linux. I can get around in linux, but i know Windows. If it doesn't have decent Windows servers and tools then I'm not going to use it.

I already plan to have our own network setup for the season. I could have a local machine hosting something, but I want to be able to access our repository remotely and the school network too locked down to do that.

I like SVN, but at this poit I need somthing that gets along with IIS since I'm already hosting websites at my house. If I could find a way to get both my hosting virtual machine, and an SVN virtual machine on port 80 with the same public IP, then I'd be happy with Apache/SVN/TortoiseSVN, but as far as I know I can't do that.

The Linux tools work on Windows, if you can use the command line, you can use them them. Then again, it's all preference, I don't like things that require using my mouse...

Does anyone else use Git?


Oh, and that reminds me, (and isn't important enough for its own topic), is there a GUIless uploader for windows?

Voltage 386 uses a CVSNT with Tortise solution for their software and website code. Works brilliantly! I've since convinced the higher-ups at my office to move their SourceSafe (really bad, I know) repositories to CVS.

We're just starting out with it, so I can't totally vouch for it, but it looks promising. It's totally free for small groups!

Also, not sure if it requires anything other than port 80, but it is all web-based, so you might be okay.

Oh - and you can make your space totally private, if you so desire (or if you're using Kevin's code )
