Line 14: Line 15:
RhodeCode is a management tool for Mercurial and Git with a built-in push/pull server, full text search, pull requests and
code-review system. It works on HTTP/HTTPS and has features like:
 * permission system with IP restrictions
 * web-based file editing
Unlike aged source code management solutions or Git-only tools, RhodeCode provides a modern platform, with unified security and tools for any version control system. The platform has been built for highly secure, behind-the-firewall enterprise environments with sophisticated user management and common authentication. Yet, it is very developer-oriented: open source, with tool integrations and powerful APIs. Developers get code review tools and custom APIs that work across Mercurial, Git & SVN. Companies get unified security and access controls so that their CTOs can sleep at night.

RhodeCode is written in Python, it is highly modular, easy to build upon, and contribute to. It also comes with an installer for any platform (Linux / Windows) so that the installation process is a breeze.

RhodeCode is similar in some respects to Github or Bitbucket. However, RhodeCode can be run as standalone hosted application on your own server, if you pay.
RhodeCode can be installed on *nix or Windows systems.

3. History

A few years ago, a large European telecom company was undergoing a change. One of the software developers, Marcin Kuzminski, was tasked with migrating the company’s code repositories from a centralized version control system to a distributed one. It quickly became evident to him that there are no tools for common authentication and security across the whole code base. Marcin started hacking instruments, and that was the beginning of RhodeCode.

Fast forward to 2016. RhodeCode is an open source platform that helps manage code of the most secure, behind-the-firewall repositories in a unified way (Mercurial, Git, and Subversion). Some of the world's largest corporate and security firms use RhodeCode.
