Overview
Gitorious is a hosting service for open source projects most of which are closely related Qt. Gitorious is using the Git distributed revision control system which was initially developed by Linus Torvalds for the development of Linux kernel but was quickly adopted by other projects and soon was among the most popular source control systems.
The little open-source project location2sms that I am working on since the summer of 2011 is also hosted at gitorious.
