GitHub

Vorteile

Sehr gute Möglichkeit zur Versionsverwaltung von Source-Code und anderen textbasierten Dokumenten. Einfaches Branchen und Mergen/Rebasen.

Nachteile

Standardmäßig gibt es nur ein command line interface.

Vorteile

The best part of this software, in my opinion, has to be the repository insights that comes with the pro version and above. These insights have proven to be extremely valuable when managing larger-scale projects with multiple developers working on the projects. Not only is our project management team able to get live updates on the progress of the project with each commit, but our team is also able to hold each other accountable by seeing their progress via the progress tracking feature and individual commits. Another notable mention for Github is their desktop GUI. This is such an incredibly easy tool to use and it makes the entire GIT experience much easier to understand and maneuver.

Nachteile

The one issue i had with this software is the repo search functionality. This part of the software can be confusing to learn to be effective with and it takes some time to be proficient with, which can be a hassle for some of our newer members of our project management team.

Vorteile

GitHub makes managing Git repos a lot easier by providing a fantastic UI and a solid infrastructure. I also love the Package Registry service which fast, reliable, quick to set up and use, and has a fair pricing plan.

Nachteile

There is very little to dislike about GitHub. I'd like to see more work towards code monetization (for instance by creating a unified platform that takes care of licensing and payments)

Vorteile

Github is really your only choice for version control. There are other platforms out there but Github has cornered the market. It's free, which is a bonus.

Nachteile

It's pretty difficult to start using. It's not intuitive at all. Many times, I have merge conflicts and when I go to edit them within github, it corrupts my branch. There are a lot of ins and outs and nuances that aren't easily navigated around when utilizing Github. I frequently get errors that have no documentation or support.

Vorteile

By far one of the best platforms to host any type of code. Once you learn how to use it, it allows you to manage code versions very easily, which is very handy for projects with many collaborators. Also, it has a great DevOps pipeline that are customisable.

Github has a really nice engaged community for open source codes, encouraging tech discussion and issue solving. Amazing community support! Besides that, an education/student plan is offered, allowing to have private repositories.

Nachteile

Not very easy to understand and use at first. Also, I've had problems when I wanted to download a single file from a repository, I either had to download the entire project or copy paste the file I wanted, which was not very handy.
