Code repositories enable developers to write code more confidently. More developers are using source control than ever before. The most obvious benefits of a code repository can be seen when multiple developers are collaborating on code. Many hands in the pot means there is a greater need to manage and understand revisions. If you ever have to make an argument to support source control, then the questions to ask would be the following:
