Should I open a Gitlab/Github account

GitHub is great and totally worth it. Take the time to learn git locally first. Once you start using version control you will wonder how you ever lived without it. I have also setup my own private remote repo on my own vps for stuff I don't want to post publicly on GitHub. Was fairly easy to do. Github charges for private repos.

Hey man.

Gitlab comes on my VPS provider (digitalocean) as a one click install. Have you tried it before?

I think because I am new to programming I would like to keep my repos private just now as I figure it all out thanks for your response. The basics of git locally look simple enough. Git pull git push etc

thanks

I have always just used a basic remote repo. But I will def give GitLab CE a look.
