in Fine. Git is Awesome. on Caffeinated Simpleton
Good post, but I'd like to point out that Bitbucket has no in-place editing / committing nor a Network Graph for seeing activity among forks. These are two of GitHub's most important features, so I think the "matches feature for feature" bit may not be entirely accurate.
For instance: http://github.com/mojombo/jekyll/network
Bitbucket also does not have commit commenting, another huge GitHub feature.
As you say though, Bitbucket does have features GitHub lacks (like the hg-powered wiki - GitHub's is not git powered) and issue tracker. The two sites take different approaches to patch management as well (patch queue vs fork queue).
Both sites have many similar features but it's unfair to call them equivalent as each has useful, unique features the other lacks.

These features are absent. You are right. But at the end of the day, forks and pull requests are the truely important features of github/bitbucket.
I can live without the other stuff though they would be nice.
In place editing/committing is something I would probably never ever ever do. I like to test that a change works before commiting it. Maybe for documentation it would be ok, though lots of documentation is generated and you would probably want to make sure it looks the way you want it to before committing.

Perhaps I was a bit too abrupt. I understand that they both have unique features that draws some distinction between the two, but bitbucket and github are close enough (in my mind) to make the existence of a central place for people to coordinate on code a non-issue in choosing between the two.
I think it would be pretty cool if they could merge and allow you to choose between using hg or git for a project. That would help the social aspects without (hopefully) hurting any of the technical ones.

Thanks for posting the correction, Ara. I agree we should make our open source policy more clear.
For the record, a git-svn clone of the codeforpeople SVN repo currently available from Rubyforge is 47M.

sigh - the email component of disqus isn't working for me - this is what i'd written:
cool - you guys rock btw - which is of course why i was upset by my interpretation of the sales page ;-)
> For the record, a git-svn clone of the codeforpeople SVN repo currently available from Rubyforge is 47M.
and *none* of my work from noaa is there ;-) thus the rationale for my bait.
