[dba-VS] [AccessD] Visual Studio and source control

[John Colby]

I suppose I just don't see the allure of doing my business development 
on the cloud.  I have had my private source control since I began using 
C# many years ago.  It has run like clockwork. It is completely inside 
of my servers.  Why would I go do it out on a public server all of a 
sudden?  This is not a public development effort.  All I am really doing 
is looking at moving from SVN to GitHub, and that only because VS now 
has a GitHub connector.  I have two largish servers that "belong" to the 
client that this code is for.  Everything else of the client's is on 
those servers.  There is simply no point in not keeping his stuff on his 
servers.

At this point all of my development is on my own VMs running on these 
servers (that I hand built ages ago) and the source control is on them 
as well.

You have spent a great deal of effort questioning why I do this but no 
effort explaining why I should not.
