Sno looks very promising! Just wondering, is it possible to use sno with github or another web-hosted repository? All the documentation I can find describes setting up the sno repository in a local folder. I tried using my clone of the github repository as my sno repository, but that seems to defeat the advantages of sno (e.g. row-locking). |

You can use any remote Git hosting including Github to host Sno repositories. It'll be ok for small datasets, though you'll see a lot of noise in the Web UI because the internals of Sno's data storage isn't human-readable in Github, and trying to do a Pull Request is a bad idea — branches need to be merged using Koordinates has a preview of our Sno repository hosting available, please email us at support@koordinates.com with your Github username and we can get you set up. We're intending to publish a configuration guide to help organisations that want to host Sno repositories on their own infrastructure, but in the interim bare Git over SSH hosting or a tool like Gitolite which doesn't try to put a web frontend on your repositories is a reasonable starting point. |
