getdropbox.com works like a charm.
+1 for dropbox
tried to signup for dropbox but it is just an invite-only beta.
looks very good though, exactly what i want. fast simple and free(?).

#34My suggestion is to get Dreamhost (500GB, 5TB transfer) and buy this for a 2-year time. Enter the promo code "5050" to get $50 bucks off, making this a $150 for 2 years hosting plan that runs svn and you'll never run out of diskspace.
DON'T use Dreamhost. I once had my SVN with them; you have no control over availability - and availability wasn't good, in my experience.
Yep, horrible downtime. Stay away from Dreamhost. We use Beanstalkapp.com, no complaints so far.

#35Is github really the only one that sells hosted git accounts? How come no one is competing with them?

#37For all of my projects, I have an assembla account ( http://www.assembla.com ) with SVN access. I don't know the privacy/crypto details, so if you're storing private/sensitive data I can't help you with any details there - I'm doing open source stuff and couldn't care less who sees my code. Your situation might be different!
+1 for assembla, I got there 3 projects
and 500MB of free space is great too!

#38I use svn and bought my space from http://svnrepository.com/
I use github for public and SVNrepository for private repos. SVNrepo recently added git, so that's awesome.

#39My start-up has had an absolutely terrific experience so far with cvsdude.com. If you want a subversion/trac/bugzilla package, the pricing is reasonable and their customer service has been great. Also, if you want to host an open source project, they have free options. I highly recommend it.
I can second this. Their uptime has been perfect in my experience and they do hourly off-site backups. They are also really cheap.
Re: Ask HN: good place to store code online?
#40Another vote for github.com. If you're interested in a more generic storage and backup service, try rsync.net. You'll have to write your own rsync scripts to do backups, but rsync.net's uptime and support have been fantastic for me.
