Overall it seems as though gitorious and github are basically the same. "Six of one, half-dozen of the other." One thing a github repository gains (not sure about gitorious?) is that it's natively "bilingual". If someone wants to clone my Sword repository with git they can hit up https://github.com/greg-hellings/sword.git But if they prefer Subversion they can hit https://github.com/greg-hellings/sword/trunk or https://github.com/greg-hellings/sword/branches/v1.7-bugfix Then they don't have to be bothered with git but can still access my work and branches. --Greg
