ZOMG!!! :omg: So far I have tried following options. 1. As Pete mentioned, You can use 'Team Foundation Service Online', it is not just for Visual Studio. TFS now supports Git repository and it works with any OS / IDE. I am using TFS Online for last 8 months and it works well. 2. If you are going to use DVCS like Git or Mercurial, then you should just use your SkyDrive or Dropbox account, and sync/map the 'Projects' folder. You are all set. :) 3. You may configure HG Web[^] or RhodeCode[^], and use Mercurial. I have even created my own CSS Style for HG Web, and it looked like awesome hosted service. But I didn't want to run a whole CentOS server just for Mercurial.

I prefer SVN, but regardless, googling Free SVN Hosting[^] finds hosting that often enough support both SVN and Git, for example.[^] Marc

I'm using TFS, but about 90% of everything I've there is on the MS stack and I can't comment on how well it would support other stuff. But it's well worth considering, because it's free.

Good 'un! I don't usually burst out laughing here, at work, but had to for this one!

From the marketing speech, it seems TFS support both Visual Studio and Eclipse, so it may be worth the shot.

bitbucket.org is nice, and you can have private repositories on a free account.

Set up a GitLab[^] server. I have one set up for my personal projects, and one for my research group at University of Maryland. There are regular updates (monthly releases), it has almost all the features of GitHub, and it's really easy to set up. You can also choose whether repositories should be public or private. Finally, the developers are very receptive to bug reports and pretty receptive to feature ideas, especially if you submit pull requests for the fix or the feature. All you need is a machine (or VM) to run it on (Ubuntu/Debian recommended). Some install notes: - If you use their recommended configuration, you will be much less likely to have problems later, and, if you do, they will be much easier to diagnose. - Install Ruby 2.0 from source by hand. Don't use RVM (or any other managed Ruby install). The instructions for doing so are in the install documentation. - You will need a newer version of Git than the one provided by Ubuntu. You can use this one[^] - You can keep the repository storage used by Gitlab on a NAS or on a RAID volume. However, it is unnecessary to keep the "satellites" (the working copies that are shown when you browse the web site) on the NAS. The network access times for the files on a NAS will slow down the web page loads considerably. (This is technically true about the actual repositories themselves too, but you'd rather have them on the most dependable storage.) - Get an SSL certificate for the server. You can probably get away with a free one from StartSSL. Don't use a self-signed one if you plan to use Git over HTTPS (as opposed to Git over SSH), or you will have to tell your Git client(s) to ignore the certificate verification (git config http.sslVerify false or GIT_SSL_NO_VERIFY=true).

I set up a local repository using CVS.. not because it's better, just because it's what I know how to use, and how to administer, including backup, repository repair, even worst-case file recovery. I prefer local repositories because the Internet quits working occasionally, and I don't want to stop and twiddle my thumbs until someone else gets around to fixing the problem. For off-site backups of the repository, I use a DVD in my safe deposit box, but that was before cloud storage. If I went with cloud storage, I'd probably push self-encrypted backup files to it so nobody at the cloud service (or government) can easily snoop on my data.. not that I have anything nefarious in it, I'm just too much of a privacy nut.

We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.
