For developers, keeping repositories for every project is as crucial as writing the code. Otherwise, several hours or days could be spent writing the same code for a similar project. This could be for a website project, app project, logistics system or statistical tools.
To be on the safe side, savvy developers use Bitbucket or GitHub to keep and manage their code repository. In this way, they can always return to any project code for any modification or use for future projects. Also, they can share the repository with other team members in an easy and efficient manner.
Crystal Ball has made things easier by creating Bitbucket and GitHub tracking annotations, where companies and individuals can track their repositories on Bitbucket and GitHub with ease. Given the vast number of repositories for running business operations, you want proper code documentation and organization.
