Hi Parag/Shlomi,

Here is the thing - I mainly code in Perl and Bash and I don't use any SCM

is unlikely to happen)

Then what's wrong with putting it on the Internet somewhere? You should be using version control - no excuses for that.


I don't know Parag's reasons, but one reason might be that the company that one works for disallows code to be out in the open. Some places tightly control what work you take out (whether it is on paper, on a USB flash drive, etc.). In those type of places, I guess they would also prefer that you don't put it on the Internet somewhere...

That said, Shlomi's right -- you can use any of the version control options (RCS, CVS, SVN, etc.) locally. Set up the repository to be your own machine. Of course, you might want to go with options newer than RCS, but whatever works for you should be ok... Just because they allow remote access doesn't mean you have to use that feature...
