A story of Github, by Wired

Lord of the Files: How GitHub Tamed Free Software (And More) | Wired Enterprise | Wired.com

Found it somewhat interesting since I recently started using Bitbucket, another hosted DVCS site.

Apply an appropriate level of bogofiltering for it being from Wired and for the gushing by fans,  though ;)

Also see Linus's comments in the article. Linus created Git, on which Github is based.

As a side note, check Github Gists, which are something like pastebins, and useful.

By Vasudev Ram

I had raised an issue with Bitbucket support recently, for the use of Mercurial (DVCS) and Bitbucket. As part of the reply, I got to know about a useful resource for Mercurial:

Mercurial tips and tricks.

On a related note, though I've only started using it recently, Bitbucket support has been quite good. Thanks, guys!

Mercurial DVCS looks good; free book on it

By Vasudev Ram


Mercurial is a modern DVCS (Distributed Version Control System).

I recently started using it; it looks good, and easy to use, so far.

Mercurial on Wikipedia.

It is mainly written in Python, according to the Wikipedia article.

If you use it locally on your computer, you can also update your projects to Bitbucket, an online DVCS hosting site.

Bitbucket is by Atlassian, the company that is also behind JIRA, Confluence, and other software products for developers.

Bitbucket lets you create a free unlimited account which can support upto 5 users.

Bitbucket supports multiple programming languages, not just Python.
