I've been using Bitbucket's free private repositories for several years and it works great for me. I think the catch is just that you can only have five users on a team, so you need to convert to a paid account if you bring in more people. If it's just your own stuff, then obviously that's not a concern. I think it's just a loss leader to bring people in and try to convert some of them to a paid offering at some point.

Yeah at this time I'm the only developer for where I'd like to apply git to.

Thanks a lot, would speed up the process not worrying about the permissions/setting it up. Still have to read some guides on Git but yeah I appreciate the tip.

I also like that it's not on the same server as the production server just because that one has limited resources at this time. Granted again it's just me.
