Bitbucket vs Github vs Gitlab

A service that stores projects to enable access to several computers and developers is called a project hosting service. All serious development and scientific projects rely on these platforms – they allow keeping track of the team’s work and accessing code from any device

Bit Bucket VS GitHub

Today I am going to share my knowledge about Bit Bucket and GitHub which provide hosting services for source code and projects. We can create projects and repositories for those projects on anyone of these hosting services to share code with all team members. We can use Git or Mercurial commands for controlling source code versions in code repository.

Bit Bucket and GitHub are two of the most used hosting services for source code and projects development. Unfortunately, Both of them do not support popular version-control system SVN to manage code in repository. Both use different approaches for managing private and public repositories.

GitHub:

GitHub only hosts those projects which use Git VCS (Version Control System). Although Git is far away from the most commonly used VCS (SVN), GitHub is still the largest code host with some 13.7 million plus repositories of code.

GitHub was started in 2008 and was written in both Ruby and Erlang. GitHub is designed to encourage close communication and collaboration within development teams. GitHub has features like highlighted code comments and collaborative code review. Other features of GitHub are as below mentioned:

An integrated issue tracker right within your project

Milestones and labels within projects

Branch comparison views

Native applications for Windows and Mac desktops, and also an Android app

Support for over 200 programming languages and data formats

GitHub pages, a feature for publishing and hosting within GitHub

Security such as SSL, SSH and https for all data transmission and two factor authentication for login

API integration for easy integration of 3rd-party tools and platforms. Some examples are Asana and Zendesk for issue tracking.

GitHub guys provide a tool to import SVN repositories into Git and host them on GitHub

Git Hub does not charge any cost for public repositories unlike Bitbucket and it does not allow to create private repository free of cost. GitHub allows unlimited number of collaborators. GitHub allows unlimited number of collaborators for private repositories grouped into the following paid plans.

Bit Bucket:

Bit Bucket has an advantage over GitHub that it supports mercurial VCS as wel as Git. It also does not support SVN. Bit Bucket is written in python and it uses Django web framework.

BitBucket was also launched in 2008 in Australia. In the beginning, it was an independent startup which offered hosting for those projects that could support mercurial VCS. Fellow Australian company Atlassian acquired it in 2010 and after one year they added support for Git repositories to Bit Bucket.

Jira is a popular project and issue managing app which can be integrated with BitBucket very well. Other features are:

Pull requests and code reviews

Unlimited private repositories

Branch comparison and commit history

Bit Bucket SourceTree is used for Mac and Windows and Bit Beaker app is used for Android to manage source code versions

BitBucket for Enterprises, called Stash

Integration with tools like Jira, Crucidble, Bamboo and Jenkins

Bit Bucket has different pricing structure than GitHub. Bit Bucket charge per user whereas GitHub charges per repository. Bit Bucket allows unlimited public repositories for all. It also allows unlimited private repositories for free of cost for up to 5 users. Bit Bucket has following pricing plans for its users:

Conclusion:

If you want to use a Git VCS then Bit Bucket and GitHub are very closely matched in terms of features. If you want to use only Mercurial then you have no choice other than Bit Bucket. Each has some useful features not found in the other, such as GitHub pages for small web-hosting projects, or Bit Bucket’s JIRA integration.

 Hi there , I have decided to move any code that I have and want to make public to Bitbucket. Bitbucket is a remote repository side for the awesome Mercurial Version control system, which is now my main version control system. Bitbucket is similar to Github in that you can branch ( called forking ) my repositories and then issue pull requests. It also has features like a wiki where I will try and document any thing I put in there. As well as using mercurial you can if you desire do a straight forward download from there. Here is a Link to getting started with not just Bitbucket but also mercurial or use the link above to jump straight to my bucket. I will continue to keep my Git Hub and will use it when needed , I will also share snippets of code using gist on git my git hub is here https://github.com/dotmh

Brown will get 15 days of Administrative Leave associated with his separation. 260 business days in a year, so, do the math…carry the four…drop the decimal…that’s another $6,346 that Brown will get. Not a bad half day’s work!

Tom Bridge does the math in a follow up to our last post on Sulaimon Brown's exit from the Gray administration and his "separation package."

The new owners have gone a step ahead and now you can have unlimited public or private repositories on Bit Bucket. Now I consider my self skeptical of putting my code in somebody else's bucket and usually my main concerns are security and privacy of it. However after ready a reply to above question from Jasper (the original creator) I am pretty much satisfied at how they handle things over there.

However as I always say, you have to have a true offline backup of your stuff for your own peace of mind.

Now here is a chance for you to start learning about mercurial.
