I learned Git on the command line, and still prefer it. I hate having to learn how to use all of the different GUIs: GitHub, GitLab, DevOps. As you said, Git is Git. Similar to using vi to edit. I know I can get on any box, and do work even if only the command line is available.

Thank you, Steve, for sharing this. I use Azure DevOps and GitHub, like you do. Some of the links you listed in the reference you gave are things I didn't know. And I've made my own comparison. I personally prefer the project management of Azure DevOps, over GitHub's. It is especially nice as it is free. I know there's better, but as an individual I can't pay for better, so good enough gets me by. But I tend to prefer GitHub's Git over Azure DevOps. Ultimately, I decided that it is better to use both.

Kindest Regards, Rod Connect with me on LinkedIn.

I just started using Azure DevOps the past year after using GitLab mostly. I would say Azure DevOps has some really nice features that stretch beyond just version control and pipelining. I still prefer GitLab mostly because it has some nice features with registries for Python, Node, and even Containers. Basically allowing your team to create private modules in Python instead of releasing those modules through public registries like PyPi. This basically allows you to create a library of modules you can integrate into other projects with your CI/CD. Containers too being you should have pipelines that spawn a container to run the pipeline for you, install all the dependancies, test, deploy, then tare down the container.

Azure DevOps is not there yet when it comes to more advance pipelining for those doing big cloud specific projects like true serverless solutions.
