As a thanks to our users, we have increased the quotas on the Equity plan. The new, improved Equity plan gets you 30 users and 30 GB of storage for $30/month. Like all ProjectLocker plans, you get unlimited projects, unlimited repositories, unlimited Tracs, and you can choose Subversion hosting or Git hosting for each project.Posted by Runako Godfrey Tue, 31 Mar 2009 00:28:00 GMT
Today I'm happy to announce something that we've been working on for a while, and that we not-so-officially launched a little while ago. That is, the introduction of our Free plan for Subversion hosting, Git hosting, and Trac hosting. Here are the details:

Due to popular demand, ProjectLocker now has Git hosting as well as Subversion hosting. From now on, any time you create a new project, you will have the option of making its repository either Git or Subversion. Either way, your repository will automatically hook into your Trac and your notifications (email, Twitter, Basecamp, etc.).Posted by Damon Young Sun, 01 Mar 2009 03:00:00 GMT
For the second time, Los Angeles will play host to Startup Weekend, courtesy of our friends at Scrum Club. Starting on a Friday night, software developers, designers, marketers & entrepreneurs gather together, pitch completely new product or company ideas, and then apply Agile & Scrum development practices to try to deliver on those pitches before the end of the weekend. As an original sponsor of Scrum Club, ProjectLocker is happy to donate its hosted software development services to all of the teams involved.
As of Saturday night, there are over 40 participants still engaged in active development on 7 separate applications. You can get up-to-date information from various people on the scene at the offices of BlankSpaces by following #swla on Twitter.
In the meantime, you can learn more about Startup Weekend in general and Scrum Club in particular by clicking on the logos here. We'll report back with the results of the weekend on Monday.

If you've logged in to My ProjectLocker or ProjectLocker Portal lately, you've probably noticed our new login screen that only uses e-mail address and password. We changed the login screen from three fields to two because we wanted to make it easier for customers to access their information — everyone remembers their e-mail address but not everyone remembers the account name and login name they used to set up their account.Posted by Damon Young Fri, 13 Feb 2009 19:09:00 GMT
A bit of a public service announcement from our friends and partners at Scrum Club, an organization based in Los Angeles dedicated to providing training and actual hands-on experience in Scrum and Agile best practices.

If you have a chance to read the testimonials for ProjectLocker on the Case Studies page of our website, you'll see that one of the more ringing endorsements for our services comes from a manager with Salesforce.com's professional services team. It seems that our hosted Subversion services was integral to the success of this team of consultants.
But now that Salesforce has started to reach beyond CRM into the world of application development with Force.com, they've given an even better recommendation for our services on their official blog. See the details of how you can integrate Subversion with your Force.com development environment at http://blog.sforce.com/sforce/2008/12/put-your-forcecom-app-under-version-control.html .

One of the more common questions we get at ProjectLocker is whether Mylyn works with ProjectLocker. For those that haven't worked with Mylyn, it's basically a plugin for Eclipse that brings all of your development tasks into your IDE, and lets you manage your Trac issues when you're offline.
Good news: ProjectLocker works with Mylyn without any special configuration. We've put together a short screencast to show how to get started. If you're new to using Mylyn, that page also has some links to help you get a better understanding of how Mylyn can increase your productivity.

Due to heavy customer demand, we've worked hard to release our newest feature: Remote Deployment. With Remote Deployment, you can deploy code directly from your SVN repository at ProjectLocker to your servers without writing scripts on your machine. You can configure multiple environments to represent your development, QA, or production deployment needs. We support transport of your data via FTP, SFTP, and SCP, and we even allow you to run SSH commands on your server after the deploy is complete! We even provide a public key that you can install to your deployment user's account to allow secure deployment without passwords. To try it out, just go to your Project page in ProjectLocker Portal and click on Remote Deploy Settings. The tool is in Beta at this time, so if you have any issues, please open a ticket or contact us via e-mail, and we'll be happy to assist.
We hope our customers find this feature useful in managing their development. Being able to deploy to multiple environments on-demand means that you can do release management more easily and on a schedule that suits you, without lots of scripting and additional hardware. If you're not yet a ProjectLocker customer, compare our prices and features to any of our competitors and you'll find we're not only the lowest-priced solution, but also the best value. We're excited to continue to find new ways to bring our customers Software Quality on Demand.
