Now that sysadmin guy who told me: "what happens when bitbucket goes down?" when I asked him to move our repos to the cloud, he is smiling. Sometimes it's best to keep stuff in your own servers, if you have any...

What about when your server and stuff goes down? Or has a bug or issue that causes downtime or similar issues? Your servers could have better uptime than Bitbucket, but maybe not.

Great. I need to push some stuff real soon now. In the last 12 months Bitbucket had an uncomfortably high number of issues. But whenever I think about moving our company code to GitLab or GitHub I envision going into a world of pain with my eng. team. Has anyone got some advice for pain-free migration to GitLab or GitHub?

GitLab is way better than Bitbucket IMO but also has way too much downtime.

Hi, I've always been curious what the quota/threshold is. My last account (i336_) got to 1000+ (before I accidentally locked it...) and I never saw the downvote button. Is it like 10,000 or something?

Your user page shows you how much karma you need to hit the next level. In your case, you need 172 to downvote comments. https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=exikyut

Really? I don't see that, I just see a karma level.

We have Bitbucket on our own servers, and we're moving it back to either Atlassian's hosting or to Github. The reason being that we spend far too much time per month hand holding the server when it goes mental and takes all of the RAM and then decides not to server any pages. And it's not for a lack of resources on the server either, 16Gb RAM and 4 core virtual machine, running Linux. So we have more downtime than either Github and Bitbucket combined.

Any guesses why that happens? It's weird that a git server goes mental just to serve a repo. We had gitlab on my previous job and git server on my preprevious job and never ever had server down problems. This period is like 5 years total.

Why not both?
