What is difference between Github Project and Git from Source Code Management in Jenkins?
Github is dedicated to using github services and it unlocks specific github features.
The other will work with any git SCM server including external vendors (github, bitbucket, your own infrastructure , team foundations server etc) . This means it will support only git standard features, nothing that is vendor specific.
You can configure both without problem.
If you install bitbucket plugin, you will have a similar third section.

I'm working in a rails project which uses SVN as central repository, but i'm working (locally) with git-svn, and I want to add a remote where i will only push master for testing purposes (i will push to Heroku).
I've read this from chapter 9.1 of Pro Git (my emphasis):
Don’t rewrite your history and try to push again, and don’t push to a
parallel Git repository to collaborate with fellow Git developers at
the same time. Subversion can have only a single linear history, and
confusing it is very easy. If you’re working with a team, and some are
using SVN and others are using Git, make sure everyone is using the
SVN server to collaborate — doing so will make your life easier.
I won't be collaborating with other Git developers (everyone else is using SVN), but before setting it up, i just want to be sure if there are any associated risks in doing this, and if so, what should/could i do about it.
If it's only for pushing to a repo so that you can then checkout/build/deploy, it won't hurt. That warning you noted is stated there so that you don't start moving around doing crazy things on the repo where you work with git-svn to relate to other developers also using git-svn (plus other restrictions) because of the way that revisions are kept on git-svn.
SAP provides a git repository in the SAP cloud plattform to be used with SAP WEB IDE. But is there a way to use a client side Team Foundation Server (TFS) (behind a firewall) and without git as the version control system in WEB IDE?
If not, anyone tried to sync a git repo (SAP cloud) with the git repo if used as TFS backend automatically?
Presently there is no out of box connector for TFS-SAP integration. There has been a related uservoice, you could vote it to get more attention.
Integrate TFS with SAP Solutions Manager
https://visualstudio.uservoice.com/forums/330519-team-services/suggestions/3243404-integrate-tfs-with-sap-solutions-manager
As for syncing git repo between tfs and sap automatically, there is no this tool or plug-in. You may need do this with the help of git command,local git repo, pull from one and push to another. It's also be able to directly build external git remote repository in TFS.
At present WEBIDE can be only integrated with git available in SAP Cloud Platform as source control.
I have this confusion and perhaps it may be basic question. I am planning to work on a Rails project along with a friend who stays in a different location.
We have identified Heroku as our deployment platform and Bitbucket for SCM related activities.
Both me and my friend are new to rails but we are familiar with web development in general.
I m working on a Windows box while he is on a Mac. We both have the same rails version including the gems. However, I'm not sure really sure how do we manage the source code and code integration. The reason I say this is because, when we try to commit the entire code from our systems a few platform specific rails file gets uploaded on the server, thereby rendering the deployment useless.
So my question is if I am on Windows and my friend is on Mac, whats the recommended way of working together on a single RAILS project and deploy it on a common platform to get the same desired functionality.
Yes, by using the source control management (SCM) you selected when you set up your repository.
For instance, if you use git, you would copy your repository using git clone (the command is provided via the bitbucket interface by clicking on clone), make your changes, and then git push your changes back into the repository.
When you want to code next, execute a git pull command to get the latest repo changes and then work and git push your changes back to the repo.
For examples see Bitbuckets fantastic tutorial.
As a side note, bitbucket also supports mercurial, although I haven't used it.
As far as your actual issue, each person will need to make sure the platform dependent files are excluded from your repository. If you're using git, see the git book specifically the section on .gitignore and git rm
I am new to Git and Aptana. I have downloaded Git from the location:windows.github.com. It installed fine.
I see a default integration of Aptana with Git, but what I dont know where it is pointing to which server location?
I want to host my code on GitHub so that I can keep different machine in Synch.
Thanks
There is a difference between Git and Github's application. Once you install both Git and Github's Windows application you need to setup both Git and Github in your PC — detailed help available in their respective sites.
Both Github's app and Aptana use the settings from your Git profile in your PC while committing and these details are simply, your username and email (and other profile settings if any).
If you want to use Aptana to connect to Github, you can do so by using: Wrench icon in the project sidebar > More > Add remote Here you must add a remote repository which will be used by Aptana. More details on Git remotes here. To avoid unnecessary hassles, the Windows Github app makes this management easier. Aptana provides a GUI around Git which is exactly what the Github App does, with some additional features and ease.
Hope I haven't confused you a little more.
it's my first use of my Jira account, and i created a project, and i want to upload source code to a my hosted source control, so i go to plugins and i found only CVS modules why ?
can any one please tell me how to install SVN on my Jira account, and upload my project ?
I am using Hosted solution (source code will be hosted on Jira).
I assume you are talking about JIRA Studio (or OnDemand as they now call it).
Atlassian's hosted solutions are probably not going to make the SVN plugin available ot you because they have a commercial product (FishEye) for that.
The subversion plugin can only be installed manually by dropping the proper jars and class files onthe right places on the server. I doubt they are going to do that for you in a hosted environment. You will probably need to purchase/rent and use FishEye if you want integration with version control.
