IT:AD:GitHub

• Advantages:
  • It has much more mind-share than bitbucket.
• Considerations:
  • -
• Disadvantages:
  • Pricier
  • Bitbucket allows Mercurial and Git – GitHub, only Git… Not that that matters anymore (Git has won).
  • The account name xact is already taken – boohoo.
  • Organisations are not free (BitBucket doesn't have such a notion…one can just be an user called 'xact').

• Free:
  • Unlimited public repos,

    • with unlimited collaboration.
    • Free accounts do not have private repositories. You can always upgrade from free to paid.

    * Personal:

  • Micro: 7$/month,

    • with unlimited collaboration
    • 5 Private repos.

    * Business:

  • Small: 25$/month
    • with unlimited collaboration
    • 10 Private repos.

Compared to Mercurial, which charges by number of users. But then again, I don't have lots of users/checkin members….. Still think that Bitbucket suits me better (having some private, some public).
