If (IF!) I begin scripting for pay, I'd like to move from my private instance of Subversion to some web-based service, since I'll be scripting from multiple locations. I don't want to bother to put a server of my own up just for this.
In the past, this has always been provided by the companies I work for ... have any of you discovered an easy-to-use, more-or-less secure web source control service? Hopefully it would use a reasonable difference engine, so as to be able to recreate previous versions of sets of scripts. It would be nicest if it were subversion-based, so when I periodically export my dataset to my local drive for backup, I could access it easily.
Thoughts? .

I've seen a number of people using Google for this: http://code.google.com/projecthosting/However, I'm not sure how well you can restrict it. It's really intended for open source projects.

A lot of good web-hosts allow you to set up subversion repositories, I use Dreamhost which is fairly popular, but I'm sure there's loads of others as well. If you're paying for a host with SVN then you should get all the control you need regarding access etc.

Both Google and SourceForge are explicitly for Open Source projects -- although it would certainly be possible to hide such a tiny commercial project in either, I strongly support their business models so I won't be doing that.
Anyone have experience with free or low-fee services that support a private project? It looks like Dreamhost is a bit of overkill at ~$10/mo, tho indeed provides all the security anyone could want. .

The only experience I have is running my own. I use Trac for some RL projects now ( http://trac.edgewall.org ), which interfaces to subversion. However, as for hosting, I don't know any who have it set up as a rentable service.

You get editor, compiler, code storage and the ultimate test environment. Plus you can access your codes from anywhere in the world. Plus it is free
