I don't have a problem with that, I still remember even the name of my fellow operator who first taught me the basics of programming back in 1966 (47 years ago)!

Good to you. Sometimes I can't remember the lot I parked the car at the morning... Wink | ;)

I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is (V).

Yes, I agree. Marking it as 'not a question', won't help the OP.

Source hosting - What should Vilmos do?

I fear I am condemned. Condemned to float upon a cloud with Da Codz.

My current 'repository' is zip files on an external archive drive. I am thinking of doing something a wee bit more formal as I have to ship this shyte occasionally and it would be nice to be able to check when, what and were changes occurred.

So the Vilmos is thinking of using a hosting site, I've got some in mind already, that supports git. My question is thus, what do you use for a source repository and what are the pitfalls?

Remember kids, there are no prizes except that warm feeling of helping Vilmos.

You can easily host your personal projects on Team Foundation Services[^]. It's free to use and works directly inside Visual Studio.

93.47% of my work is outside the MS stack - Java and PHP [Do I not like that!] - are the biggies currently. Though I may be doing some Sharepoint [aka WTE] soon.

All languages and platforms welcome.

From C# to Python, from Windows to Android, you can use a variety of languages and target a variety of platforms.

Whether you’re a team using Microsoft tools, or a freelancer targeting Android with Eclipse, our services help you focus on what you do best – building great apps.

Not sure how much of that is true and how much is marketing b'lox, but at that price it's probably worth trying.

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

I'd prefer a free option, and github is only free for public repos.

ok, but, you were thinking of using a 'hosting site' anyway, wernt you ? .. so, whats the yearly upkeep on a domain name etc for an alternate site, vs $24 AUD/month (less in pounds) for a github 10 private repo level account

If you've got a NAS or similar, I've heard rumours it's possible to host SVN repository on there, so you can avoid the cloud if you want.
