CodeProject now uses Git.
CodeProject is for sharing code, articles and tutorials, with Code being one
of the most important parts of this. Hence our name, really.
Previously all code was stored in zip files that authors uploaded and our
readers downloaded. That was fine, but a little inflexible given that most devs
now use source code control connected directly to their IDE. We also didn't have
versioning of the zips which was not great if you wanted to rollback to previous
versions.
This has changed. Code samples for CodeProject articles are now being stored
using a Git backend. On the left hand side of each article you'll find a "browse
code" link that will take you to the Git repository where you can browse the
files, the commits, and where you can connect directly to the repo in order to
clone or, if you're an author, update.
It's a major change in our backend systems that should result in easier
updates for our authors and more choice for our readers. Most of our articles
have been converted but there are a few stragglers that we'll convert over in
the next few days.
Enjoy, and please post any comments or bug reports on our
Bugs
and Suggestions forum.
cheers,
Chris Maunder
