My new-FREE project repository

After some reserch and some experiment finally I fund the correct hosting. My requirements were:
  • Hosting public and private projects
  • Issue tracker
  • Wiki
  • Easy to use
  • No space limits
  • And FREE
At the beginning I thought that was impossible to find something with this features, but the I discovered Bitbucket developed by Atlassian.
It's based on Git (and also Mercurial) and really similar to GitHub but the pricing plan in my opinion is much better.
If you know some other Hosting with this features please let me now commenting this post.

So I did the same modification to the Android code but this time I was not so lucky. I started to find in the network and I came across the Giovesoft Blog post.
