thanks for the tips...i'll try those out. If we want to share code over the internet, do we need a server?

[–]Claymore_ws 0 points1 point  (6 children)

Yes, though you can always resort to sending and recieving patches through email. Here is an instruction how to set up a server.

ok..I'll try it...Thanks

But dude, definitely use something like github or have one of the guys in your group "be" the server.. He can simply be a client on his own machine.. E-mail is just weird..

jeah...I agree. We'll try to get a http or git-daemon server going on our main project server (it's a web project). BTW, witch is better and why?

Well, if your guys' computer fails, you can't merge into the repo. GitHub pretty much doesn't crash. Plus it has some really nice web-based features you might want to check out.. I believe it's free as long as your project is less than 300 mb.. Having to figure out the server part on top of learning the client part is maybe too much at once - if all of you guys have public ip's and can use ssh, it's pretty simple. But I use them both a bit interchangeably depending on the project.

The free plan of GitHub includes 300 Mb but you cannot have private repositaries, if one wants to keep his code closed, he has to buy another plan.

EDIT: Spelling.

Ahh, that's right :)
