I've written a fair amount of code now and I've been looking for somewhere to store it for a while. Up until now this has meant a combination of a friend's SVN repo, a couple of laptops and an external hard drive. However, I recently decided to take the plunge and try Google Code.
For some reason, I'd previously thought that Google Code was only used for Google App Engine. However, this turned out to be totally wrong (you can put pretty much anything on there as far as I can tell) and I now have a high availability SVN repo at my disposal. Once I'd created my top-level project I quickly added two sub-projects - one for the level editor (Java) and one for the game itself (Python).
First impressions are extremely good. Integration with Eclipse (via the Subversive plugin) was seamless and so far, the repo has been available every time I've used it. It's occasionally a little sluggish, but that's a small price to pay as far as I'm concerned.
