Hi.

In a close future BotArena will be an Open Source project, and I am looking for a server to upload BA's Source code. I want a free server with a decent space capacity abaliable to do code branches and so.

Can someone help me here?

Thx in advance

Fran

Depends mainly on what version control system you're using.

I prefer Git as well. Mercurial might be a better choice if you're on windows though as it has slightly better tools there. (Based on what I've heard, don't really work with windows if I can avoid it.)

As long as it's only the code you want to upload and not any related other resources (such as images and other potentially large/binary files) any of the major hosting should be fine. Most version control system handle binary poorly and can grow the size of your repo rather quickly.

Github is my goto recommendation.

Thx for the answers. I will check that both servers.
I wanted that for a SVN repository, where all coders can download and upload the changes on the source code.

I like bitbucket. Unlike github, they have free private repos.

In the end, I chose Xp-dev server. On this you can do a private repository or an open source one and seems to be friendly.
