asp.net - Host to use Microsoft Visual SourceSafe or CVS on web hosting for development? -


host use microsoft visual sourcesafe or cvs on web hosting development?

i start question "why vss or cvs"? because of legacy reasons, or because don't know other options?

if answer "because of legacy", don't have choices. there no cloud providers offer vss support, , choices cvs not great either. sourceforge.net still offers cvs support, , searching "cvs hosting" yields results, not well-known names proven reliability , security.

however, given choices are, quite interested hear more details legacy project uses both vss and cvs. :-)

if, however, answer "because don't know else there", recommend svn, mercurial or git. there great cloud providers offer support these 3 ranging free open source projects multiple tiers of paid support proprietary projects. , it's quite easy set servers of these 3 yourself. not mention of them orders of magnitude better vss , cvs.

to give quick start, here's short list of providers can at:

  • codeplex - svn , mercurial support, free open source projects, there's control on visibility of source
  • github - git support, free plans open source, paid plans proprietary projects
  • google code - svn , mercurial support, free 2gb open source projects, though have control on visibility of source
  • bitbucket - svn , mercurial support, free 5 users, unlimited paid , proprietary projects
  • sourceforge - git, svn, mercurial, , cvs support, free open source projects
  • unfuddle - git , svn support, paid
  • codebasehq - git, mercurial , svn support, paid

there lot more out there, various pricing models (and reliability of course :-))

update: if working on web app, web host dos have support source control. can have sources (html, css, js) in separate version control host, , deploy web host final version of work.
