Web interface for version control system

Is there a version control system with a large web interface so that it can mainly be controlled and used from a web browser?

The interface should function in the area of ​​entering a new code and viewing / loading previous commits.

GitHub is similar to the aforementioned Beanstalk, but for Git. I know that it provides an excellent user interface for viewing commits (and branches, tags and merges, etc.), but I don’t know if you can commit from the user interface.

No one has ever blamed Git for being easy to use (like TortoiseGit, although I heard it came), so you might be better off with SVN / BeanStalk.

I am using a Subversion server hosted at http://www.beanstalkapp.com/ . Beanstalk has a rich interface for navigating the source of the project. However, I do not use it to verify the code, since it, like any web interface, commits / updates one file at a time. This would be very inconvenient for a large project.

For commits / updates, I use TortoiseSVN, as it gives you (a) a seamless BeanStalk interface and (b) integration with File Explorer.

There are several open source options for SVN and others, however I would not use the existence of a web interface as a key decision point in a version control system. Most of them have access to the web interface, but the key functions are more explicit for the systems themselves.

As Mike Miller said, I would not look at the web interface to base your choice of version control system.

ClearCase has a great GUI, but it costs a fortune.

Most SCM systems now have third-party web interfaces that you can add. WinCVS for CVS, TortoiseSVN and Trac for SVN and git-gui for Git.

Focus on what features the underlying SCM has, and from there from there, laying the GUI on top.

Vss ? Hmmm. Not sure about that. IMHO

MKS has a browser interface, but it is completely inapplicable. It has a very poor interface and is fully controlled by JavaScript, so it is impossible to bookmark or send links to anything.

In addition, it displays the entire tree as a single list of files with the full path to each element.

I believe MKS has a browser interface.

The latest version of SourceSafe has a web interface. I have not used it, although I cannot comment on how well it works.
