I did end up having a bit of trouble with Versions and Beanstalk. It happened when I upgraded my Beanstalk account to a paid account and, as part of the upgrade, got HTTPS connectivity to my repositories. When I changed the repository URL in Versions from the original HTTP version to the new HTTPS one, I ran into an error: Server certificate verification failed: issuer is not trusted There was more to it than that but that was the important part.

I recently decided to start using source control for my Mac software development. Yes, yes, I use source control - Subversion - all day long at work but had not gotten around to using it at home for other projects. One of the reasons is that I simply don’t want the hassle of setting everything up. I want to code, not fool around with the administrative tedium of doing backups, maintaining a repository, setting up SSL and securing the server, etc.
