Version Control (eg Github)

PHPRunner General questions

Hi

Years ago when we wrote code by hand, our team used github for version control. What do you use now to backup builds?

I can see there are a few backups in the phprunner folder, but what I'm looking for a solution where I can test all my code and then if I'm happy, push it to the live server.

Any advice on different current day solutions would be appreciated. I've been out of programming for over a decade and catching up with all the wonderful changes.

Though dating in 2011, the above URL content can still provide some useful information.

Is there a some other solutions that are free? Unfuddle is a paid service.

Built for professional teams

For inspiration purposes only, best way to dig out more free services
is to use the major search engine under matchword "unfuddle alternatives".

P.S. In regard to "...and then if I'm happy ..." the truly cheapest solution is
to use PHPRunner itself for revision management. Example: The "save as
template" feature inside PHPRunner is the first step to go to obtain a file
to store under "... and then if I'm happy ..." mood, e.g. in a directory named
"1st happy drafts". If the number of such files is heappening at large, you the
take PHPRunner to create a database table with fields to enter more details
and a field for FILE upload (... nota bene: with only .phpr file upload permission
which can be freely defined inside PHPRunner). Equip such web appliance then
with DYNAMIC PERMISSION OF USER RIGHTS (as well built into PHPRunner)
to create accounts for else one sin the programming team to download the file
to work on same. If such works are done, the new respectively modified .phpr
file is then saved in a folder like e.e. "2nd happy drafts" to not interfere with
the first original oneby over-writing. With as admin you would have access to
such new/modifed file for re-loading the project, So, you not only pay monies
to third parties, but you even would have the full control of what other team
participants have access to, thanks to "click to feel the velvet..." admin area.
In my personal opionin, the "home-made" solution under PHPRunner even
supersedes the on of UNFUDDLE and else ones by far, simply because all
works done are stored under one optimal roof named PHPRunner with you
as admin and endless possibilities to fine-tune things later on.

Thanks. I dont want to discuss spending more money with my other half. This was is much easier.

HJB 7/23/2021

Okay, tell your other half part, no need to worry about monies.
PHPRunner has the capabilties, if handled by some skilled one,
to transform into its own SUPERNATURAL revision and control
system by own resources shipped by default by means of a web
applaince, customized to needs..

If not to say, once you created such thing and want even to make
one dollar or even two out of your works, Xlinesoft's market place
really is the simpiiest marketing way to go ..., moreover, though
slowly, the professionals within the global community are discovering
of what the developer's slogan, namely "PHPRunner, the best PHP
code generator in this world ...", is really all about ...
