OpenSVN - free Subversion Host

#1 Great link. I would just add that if you use a 3rd party service like this, always keep local backups. You wouldnt want to lose months of hard work because of an error on their end.

#2 Insert dumb question here:

This is a CVS system for free right?

#3 SVN is a different software package than CVS, but it is used for effectively the same purpose.

#4 Cool someone gave me a free space on a server but when i told him i wanted a cvs script install he was like ... no

#5 Sometimes you get what you pay for i guess.

#7 Just a small point, but I wouldnt trust external SVN hosts with code that you don't want publically available. Not saying it will happen, but the person running the repo could easily access your code. With something like TGE, if that happened it would be a breach of the license.

Why take the risk ? It's not like it's hard to setup your own svn repo.

#8 Question about SVn will this also prevent me and another developer from working on the same file? Like I can check out a file and he can't touch it?

#9 Yes you can check out a file which bacially bloks others from writing on it. Have a look at svn lock

#10 Thanks
