As I understand it, one criterion used by the Alioth admins when deciding whether a project is accepted on Alioth is that it is already being worked on by multiple people. I get the impression that's not the case for your projects, am I wrong? > I would like to record the history of how I package some projects by > putting my work in a repository.

You would do well to use one (or more) of the current best Distributed VCS (DVCS) systems: Bazaar, Git, Mercurial. Bazaar <URL:http://bazaar.canonical.com/>, in particular, has excellent support for many different storage systems, including remote SFTP. That way, you don't need a specific VCS server program; you just need some online storage space somewhere. For a Subversion refugee, I recommend Bazaar in particular since it can operate in a centralised manner when that makes sense, and its command interface is very familiar to Subversion users. -- \ “The double standard that exempts religious activities from | `\ almost all standards of accountability should be dismantled | _o__) once and for all.” —Daniel Dennett, 2010-01-12 | Ben Finney
