Any online source control services anyone can recommend? VSS, CVS, CVSNT?

Hi All,

I have a team of three developers in different locations and we need some form of hosted source control. Can anyone recommend <STRIKE>inexpensivefree version control software that handlesremote programmers? I'm aware of CVSNT, can I host this myselfthrough discountASP?

Thanks!

Bruce, can you please elaborate on this vss hosting, did you mean discountasp can create a vss database on request, which we can access.

 

I'd highly recommend subversion (SVN) over any of the solutions mentioned so far. A lot more complete.

Even though this thread is already a bit older, I can only warn of VSS. If you forget about the completely unintuitive use for a second, VSS databases are prone to get corrupted and all other sorts of things.

Beside that I usedCVS and SVN before, out of which SVN is the clear winner. You can very easily set up SVN to access a repository over http(s), even though it's probably not possible to do this with DASP. Ididit myself on a Win2003 box at home connected over cable and using dyndns for dynamic domain name (also free). If you're concerned about security, you could put a VPN endpoint capable router in front of your LAN that allows your people to establish a secure tunnel through which the access VPN. Don't forget to check out TortoiseSVN,SVN's wonderfulintegration into Windows Exlorer.
