Lets say that me and my friend are trying to work on same software project. We are not located on same location but we wish to be as productive is possible.
We are using Visual Studio 2005, the code has to be written in C/C++ and at this moment we send the code using zip files.
My questions are:
1) what approach should be used sharing code in order to be more productive.
2) are there any free online platforms good for that?
3) do you have any advice for us?
ps: I own a webserver account with linux hosting. What can i install on that server in order to improve our working status.
