RhodeCode and fournova Forge Partnership to Advance Git Adoption

Published on October 23, 2015, by Brian


Berlin and Palo Alto - October 27, 2015 - RhodeCode Inc., and fournova Software GmbH today announced a strategic partnership that combines the strengths of each company to deliver unparalleled Git development capabilities.

This partnership brings together RhodeCode's repository and permissions management solution, RhodeCode Enterprise, and fournova's desktop client, Tower. Combining both products enables companies to host their repositories and manage user permissions behind-the-firewall, and developers to say goodbye to the command line and use the full capabilities of Git through Tower's powerful and productive interface.

This partnership addresses a specific market need: enterprises are looking to simplify adoption of Git within their organization while simultaneously empowering development teams to make the most of its capabilities, said Matthew Powell RhodeCode CEO. "We anticipate both customer bases will benefit from our aligned strategies to solve important issues and enable greater development productivity."

RhodeCode Enterprise delivers on-premise Source Code Management with pull requests, code review, smart commit support, and workflow enforcement. It is designed to scale with permissions grouping, High-Availability configuration options, and an API architecture which allows teams to integrate with third-party extensions.

fournova's Tower is all about making Git easier to use - while still providing all of the system's power. Features like a visual Conflict Wizard or the many "Undo" functions give developers confidence and help reduce errors. On the other hand, Tower improves productivity by offering things like one-click cloning, Submodule support, and easy drag & drop for complex tasks. Freeing up developers to concentrate on delivering quality code is one of the many benefits that Tower brings to the equation.

Git is gaining incredible traction in Enterprise and Tower is at the forefront of client-sided tools that enable developers to collaboratively develop and leverage the distributed power of Git over its centralized predecessors, said Tobias Günther fournova CEO. Key to this success is the creation of user friendly tools that let developers focus on what is important.
