Developers looking for a Source Code Management platform
About BitKeeper
BitKeeper is the original distributed source management system. Now available as Open Source under the Apache 2.0 License. BitKeeper is a fast, enterprise-ready, distributed SCM that scales up to very large projects and down to tiny ones. Nested Repositories are submodules done right! Version control collections of repositories. Hybrid mode for binary files that uses a cloud of server for binaries instead of bloating the source repositories. All file accesses validate checksums for integrity. All file writes include redundancy for error correction. High performance and scales to very large repositories.

Perforce TeamHub
Your code repository software is where you store your source code. This might be a Mercurial, Git, or SVN repository. Perforce TeamHub (formerly Helix TeamHub) can host your source code repository, whether it’s Mercurial, Git, or SVN. You can add multiple repositories in one project — or create a separate project for each repository. Perforce TeamHub can host more than your code repositories. You can manage and maintain all of your software assets in one spot. This includes build artifacts (Maven, Ivy) and Docker container registries. It also includes private file sharing through WebDAV repositories for your other binary files. You can use TeamHub on its own or alongside P4 to maintain a single source of truth across development teams. For example, you can keep large binary files in P4, then combine those files with Git assets from Perforce TeamHub in a hybrid workspace to achieve high build performance.

Kuscos
Whether you are wanting to know what was added to that legacy Cobol system back in the 90s, or looking for advanced techniques to better manage your ongoing C# development project, Kuscos is the software intelligence platform of choice. For development teams, managers and executives, Kuscos delivers key information regarding source code modules and team members, from design documentation to dependencies, duplicate code and quality rule violations. Kuscos also provides oversight of team activities, from repository commits to issues resolved. Better still, the same platform does this across more than 16 legacy and modern software languages. As we pointed out in our earlier post, and according to the Standish Group, over the past 5 years only 29% of software projects could be described as successful (meeting time, budget and functionality goals). Improvements over time have been minimal despite increases in code development efficiencies and design processes
