Same as Griff, Git with Bitbucket.

I use TortoiseGit and the instructions for setting this up with Bitbucket are in the second link.
TortoiseGit – Windows Shell Interface to Git[^]

Setting up Git and TortoiseGit with Bitbucket, Step by step | Guganeshan Thambiraja's blog[^]

Bitbucket provides a companion software called SourceTree. Last time I used it, it sucked, but I have been told it has gotten better over the last couple of years. You may want to try that.
SourceTree | Free Git and Hg Client for Mac and Windows[^]

Or you can do all of your Git from the command console. Some people like that too.

And of course, I think there are plugins now for Visual Studio 2015 - could be wrong.

At work, we use TFS (no choice), but I don't recommend this product, avoid it if you can - IMHO. Laugh | :laugh:

I've used SourceTree a bit and find it fine. First used a year or so ago. With Git I've tended to use a combination of command line, VS Integration and something like SourceTree depending on context.

At work at the moment (contract assignment) it's TFS. When I last used Subversion it was mainly TortoiseSVN and a bit later tried Ankh.

If your development are distributed geographically and / or work from home then Git may the better solution as it is a distributed version control system (DVCS). Otherwise it depends on what you currently have and what you have used previously.

I've used SVN with Tortoise and loved it. I now use TFS 2015 and have to admit (coming from someone who used to dislike TFS) that it's come a long way and is now a really decent version and application life-cycle management tool.

Recently I was collaborating remotely on a project with a colleague and this worked well - Git + Bitbucket + Slack + Skype. Smile | :)

Nice. We use Slack too for all collaboration and we also push all our build notifications through Slack too. As Slack has so many integration points it can be extended to work with almost anything Smile | :)

Yes, we were doing that, or rather colleague was at his end as he had the permissions to set it all up. Smile | :)

As others have said, if you have to leave your office from time to time and work remotely then you should definitely switch to GIT or any other distributed sc.

Not sure if you're only thinking about SVN, but since others have recommended GIT I guess Perforce[^] deserves a mention too.

It is free to use for upto 5 users and 20 workspaces. So for really small teams it can be used for free.
I think it has a clean interface (but maybe that's just because I've used it for a while and become used to it).
So unless you plan to do distributed development, Perforce might be worth considering.

Not a movie, it's bitter reality in Q&A.

The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

Agreed - even with forgetting the lyric, she was brilliant at the Nobel presentation for Bob Dylan. The emotion just killed it!
