As a first foray into a team software development project, the group acknowledged the importance of setting up a version control system. The system would have to enable multiple contributors to work on the project in unison whilst minimising the risk of anyone being able to overwrite others work.
A number of version control systems exist, such as Git and SVN, however Git was chosen due to a number of the group being slightly more familiar with it. As a small group project with no experience any advantages/disadvantages of other systems would likely be academic. Sometimes go with what you know is the way!
The project is hosted at https://github.com/jeromegill/StaveInvaders and will remain open source.
