@vzvenyach I wrote a tiny recipe for source control. Let me know what you think.

Also, I recommended the two top modern tools, git and mercurial. My preference to avoid decision fatigue would be to just go with git, but I am not sure how opinionated we should be. Thoughts?

Also, also, I wrote that github and bitbucket were generally acceptable for digital content. True when not open source?

:tada: thanks @baccigalupi! This is great! Merged!

I think the recipes can be pretty opinionated. If you had only mentioned git, I would have been :+1:, too. But it's probably best to include mercurial, too.

In re bitbucket/github. This is actually a debate a couple of us have had from time to time. The consensus seems to be that it's not perfect, but the benefits outweigh the downsides. I wrote a script at one point that would allow us to easily export the source code (though not issues) if we ever felt the need to do so.
