Hello Mr Groggy. 🙂 I've been using github for everything. I don't use the in built VS tools except for comparing history. I used to use beyond compare but the VS context tends to make the diff more useful than a pure text diff.
I use the command line for everything. A team leader suggested I learn the cmd line git and don't even install the VS git extensions (it was optional back then) and for 99% of stuff command line is what I understand. I sometimes use Gitkraken for visualising branches and diffs of branches. I do have some code in VisualStudio.com but its essentially an upstream duplication of what's in my github. Work in github world and occasionally push upstream so client has their copy. Use what works until it doesn't. Good luck! cheers Stephen ________________________________ From: [email protected] <[email protected]> on behalf of Greg Harris <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, 10 June 2021 10:02 AM To: ozDotNet <[email protected]> Subject: Online source code management tools - GIT / Visual Studio / Bit Bucket / Other ??? Hello Again Community, I am disappointed with my https://MyAccountName.visualstudio.com/_git/MySolutionName<https://myaccountname.visualstudio.com/_git/MySolutionName> repository on VisualStudio.com. It is feeling clunky and just not working for me from within Visual Studio. What tools are people using for secure private cloud source control with what client tools? I am feeling that Visual Studio is not the tool to use to manage my source code, it may be okay as an editor / compiler, but it just does not integrate well with the repository, are there better solutions, or am I just failing to read the manual properly? Thanks for your help on this :-) Groggy Harris
