I am researching alternatives for GitHub and one essential feature I am looking for is - https://github.com/blog/905-edit-like-an-ace
I will prefer a self-hosted solution but we are open to online-hosting as well. In fact, GitHub.com itself is perfect fit for us except for their plan-structure. We want the option to have "unlimited repositories" which is not possible in any GitHub plan. (why we need "unlimited" is discussed here)
So far 2 solutions we liked so far are - Gitorious and Indefero. They are both nice. Though gitorious looks more polished, Indefero comes closer to our requirements.
Important features we are looking for in "Web-based" inferface are:
Repos management (add/remove/edit)
User management (add/remove/edit)
Team management (add/remove/edit)
Access control.
Online editing (essential because small-edits can be done very quickly in this way)
Any suggestions. Or any "hacks" to make online-editing possible in Gitorious or Indefero or in any other solution. Any other git-hosting will also work if they provide above features + unlimited repos.
Thanks for all the help in advance.
Not sure if GitLab supports it yet, but take a look at http://gitlabhq.com/! It's the most promising GitHub alternative yet, it's for self-hosting though.
GitHub itself provides online editing, but you can also try Cloud9 IDE.
There is GitHub:FI which is basically self-hosted GitHub.
Nowadays I would suggest you a combination of GitLab and Cloud9 IDE. For both the source code is available and running online in any modern browser.
Please consider that, GitLab and Cloud9 having many dependencies to 'heavy' environments (Python, Ruby, Node.js, PostgreSQL, ..).

I was wondering if anyone can recommend any GUI/portal/platform/application that shows code revisions. I'm using subversion with my eclipse and wonder if there's something nice such as trac to see the changes.
Thanks
screenshot example from trac (I found it extremely hard to install)

I've been using WebSVN and it works great. I've put it at the same host as my repository and access it through standard apache. WebSVN is free.
Then there is FishEye from Atlassian. It's not free but I don't doubt it's one of the best ones available.
What about good old subclipse? Not only it shows revisions, but also it's a great implementation of subversion client for eclipse with such functionality as: commit, update, branch, merge, etc. Not mentioning extended visualization capabilities. It seems that you do not use subclipse while you definitely should.

Does anyone know of a free build server service to coincide with scm/forum/issue tracking services such as sourceforge/googlecode?
Obviously hudson/jenkins service would be my first preference related to primarily java/maven2, but anything would be nice!
Thanks!
Cloudbees has an offering for FOSS projects.
Another one (especially for public Github repos): http://travis-ci.org/
Researching the same thing currently, I stumbled over jenkinshosting.com (reported as suspicious site, Aug2012)- Jenkins build server, free for FOSS. Haven't tried it yet, though.
Atlassian offers licensed and on-demand products to open-source projects. Bamboo may be included.
https://www.atlassian.com/software/views/open-source-license-request
A TeamCity based server farm is available for open source projects through http://teamcity.codebetter.com/. Read the announcement.
Another option for OSS is http://www.appveyor.com/, which is including support for Windows 8.1 store apps.
Jenkinshosting.com use to offer free open source hosting. It's worth checking out to see if it's still continued.

I need a simple, web-based version control tool. 'Version Control' probably implies a lot of functionality I don't need such as diff and merge.
Basically, I have a lot of non-programmer types working on binary files (think Photoshop PSDs), and I would just like a way to check them out and in, and keep previous versions.
Web-based would be ideal, I just want something better than nested folders on a shared drive.
Suggestions?
You could try asvcs: it's web-based and very simple. My advice would be to try one of the known solutions (svn, git, mercurial, even bazaar) and use only the features you need.
Dropbox provides a web interface and can be used as a simple version control system.
Try building something around git. (Or maybe set up a private github account.)
Springloops has what you're looking for. However, it's a paid service. Integrates nicely with Basecamp
You could also use Dropbox. There's version control of sorts. But history is kept only for 1 month.
And there's github
I know through experience that Atlassian's Confluence wiki solution will do versioning for binary uploads. I'm sure there are probably other open source alternatives available as well.

There are many free online Source Control available but I would like to know your experience on it, if any, and which is the best one?
Me and my friend are starting a small test project and would like some really good online source control.
We will be developing ASP.Net app.
If you're just after a hosted source code repository:
Github
Bitbucket
If you need issue tracking, file releases, wikis, mailing lists, etc:
Sourceforge
Google Code Hosting
I've got one project at Sourceforge, and I find the amenities quite nice. You might find this comparison handy.
I'm using Unfuddle for some personal stuff to avoid issues with corporate firewalls.
You can commit over http with them.
Otherwise, use Github as already suggested.

I'm looking for a Mercurial hosting which is free. (I'm only a student right now.) And it seems like it boils down to Bitbucket or Project Hosting on Google Code. (Other suggestions are welcome.)
So, how do these services compare in terms of features and service?
Update: Kiln is also a strong contender (I use it myself) and I thought I felt I should mention the name in the question. In terms of features, the strong integration with something strong as FogBugz could be a major plus.
Your choice basically comes down to whether you want it to be private or not.
If you want it open to the world you can't go wrong with either.
However, if you want it to be private you should go with bitbucket. Even then you are limited to 2 users in a free private repo.
My guess is you want it to be private and free (since you're a student) so your only other option there is to host it yourself. This would be a great option if you can pull it off. Remember, you don't need to have it hosted on a server to share and merge, there are plenty of commands for sharing patch sets through email.
Kiln http://www.fogcreek.com/Kiln/StudentAndStartup.html is another option you can get for free since you are student. Run by Joel Spolsky's company I believe.
JavaForge is another option to consider if you are looking for free Mercurial hosting. You can have private projects and it has all the features mentioned before. Even better, it supports Git, SVN and CVS (even mixing them within the same project) if you want to freely experiment with (D)VCS.
