Day 90: To Git or not to Git, that is the question

This last days I was thinking if it is a good idea to upload the code to github or something like that. There are some points:

  • The need of sharing code. 
  • I don't want to have in the future 1000's of clones running on KGS like GnuGo, I don't care about people modifying code and uploading them, but why does KGS have only clones? 
  • It will be easier for me to document code. 
  • Will have to read about licences, I will obviously choose some really open licence, but have to read a lot.

If you have more pro/cons, just tell me.

  1. Did you decide yet?
    As a possible go programmer I would of course be interested to see other code. It was interesting though to see it the other way around: You giving your code away (just to be cloned on KGS). So there are maybe also downsides to the great idea of opensource?

  2. Still deciding. But for now there is one thing: My code is getting a little "unstable" because I am working fast to make it to December 15. When this pass I think I will make a decition.
