Why now ?
Because I am under Windows and I feel that the windows port is ready for my personnal use with TortoiseGit.

Where is my repository ?
Just on my local drive, but if you want to opensource your project I suggest you to go on GitHub.

How to backup and get my source from an another computer ?
Dropbox ! because I already use Dropbox to sync my files online and across my computers automatically and it works very well.
If you use my referral link for Dropbox, you will have +250 Mo with your 2 Go free account. (and me too)

Finally, if the project is not a Vaporware, you can always move your repository on GitHub or somewhere else.

Go and try TortoiseGit with Dropbox

Why I use it for my mum ?

• Very easy to use, just a click on an icon and she give me her id and password, nothing else to do.
• Nothing to config to pass through firewalls.
• You can send a file on the remote computer quickly.
• It's not opensource, but it's free for non-commercial, personal use.
