Free Git Hosting at Assembla

Unlimited Repos, Unlimited Users, 2 Gigabytes Storage.

  • Our free Git hosting provides you with a commercial-quality Git repository for you to host your code securely, and reliably in a good-looking package
  • All of our free Git repositories allow both private and public permissions so you can have full control over who is able to see and commit to your codebase.

Free Git Repositories you can rely on

Over 170,000 users have chosen Assembla to accelerate their projects and manage their code. All of Assembla's Git Repositories are housed in datacenters with world-class physical security and firewalling, and come with 128-Bit SSL Encryption (HTTPS).

All repositories are stored in a SAN (Storage Area Network) with built-in backup w/ failover and redundancy. In addition, we sync to off-site backups to protect you against the extremely unlikely worst-case scenario data-loss where all datacenter systems fail permanently. We also give you the option to get your OWN backups delivered automatically to your own Amazon S3 storage account automatically.

When you choose a free private Git repository, you can keep your intellectual property safe from prying eyes; only the people you invite to be a member of your space can see your code, and you can also put in place IP-restrictions to restrict usage to specific computers and networks.

Why free?

Why are we offering this powerful professional tool in a free, unlimited use package? We are confident that you will eventually want a paid subscription, to accelerate your software development with our other ticketing, collaboration, and management tools. Start with a 30 day trial now, or upgrade at any time. We will keep working with you, and improving our workflow until you are convinced.

Our free Git repositories also include some great enhancements to make managing codebases large and small both easier and more productive.

  • Changeset browser - see what is new, and what is changed.
  • All commits are linked to Assembla user profiles and reports.
  • Browse your source code with syntax highlighting and image rendering.
  • View as a Web Page - Instantly see your HTML pages rendered as web pages with images, CSS, and JS. Speeds Web design.

Team-Unifying Activity Stream

The Assembla Activity Stream gives you a single location in each space to stay up to date on the changes being made to your code within each of your individual repositories.

  • Multiple notification formats: Email, Web and RSS views of all events, including commits.
  • Integrate with Trac or Assembla Ticketing systems. (upgrade required)
  • Use commit comments to link changesets to tickets. View related tickets from the code browser. View related changesets from your ticketing tool.
  • Pro Accounts can add the webhooks tool and even notify external systems after each commit.

Fork & Merge for Git

One of the Golden Rules of managing code with a version control system is: Commit Often. Fork & merge for Git will empower your team to commit more often with more confidence that they won't break the codebase for others working in the same Git repository.

  • Create an isolated copy of your Git Repository with the click of a button.
  • Browse inside current forks of your project from the Forks page of your Git Repository.
  • Merge Requests - You control what code makes it back into your main branch with merge requests. Merge only the code you want back in your main project.
