They forgot Google Code[1]. It's still "up" but it's obvious it's been abandoned by the amount of spam issues that have been building up. I know people like github more than google code - but I personally liked Google Code for it's simplicity.

Should Google just kill it and suggest people move to GitHub?


Well - Google should offer a way to export your data that way people can easily move to another source code hosting service.

Preferably - it should be a one button click of "copy to github repo". Which would include conversion of SVN and Mercurial history to git.


That makes sense. That's what I'd want for my projects on Google Code if it got shut down.


Most google code projects don't use git.
