hey you guys, i want to know if the google code platform itself is open source? in other words, can i set up a similar platform for my company like google code?? or is there any platform open source like google code?
@Key - I think you have an excellent questions. I would also love to be able to use the platform in different environments, and also be able to make improvements to the platform.
However, I also understand the opposing reasoning. Any truly open source project should have no reason why it couldn't be hosted on Google's servers. Having a version that could be run on an internal company platform would remove part of the incentive to create open source software.
So, did Google convert all repositories? Or does this feature only work for branches that are created from now on? Would love to see a follow-up article on this issue.
Great news! Do you recommend any 1.5 client for MacOS X? It still comes shipped with 1.4.4
ReplyDelete@Dirk: sure, just grab a prebuilt svn commandline binary from the subversion project homepage: http://subversion.tigris.org/getting.html#osx

I'm happy for happy subversion users, but now that I've used git, I'm can't imagine going back to a non-DVCS.
