Project manager + mercurial

I have started working on my projects with a team, it is a small team (only 3) but we are on different places.

I'm searching for a tool that provides the following:

  1. mercurial hosting
  2. project management (to do lists, milestones ... etc something like Project Pier)
  3. if it is free this would be great! if not i can pay up to $30 - $50 / month

We all use different IDEs, eclipse and dreamweaver, and it would take sometime so we can all decide one IDE to use.

Solution

  • Let me add Bitbucket to the list of tools:

    1. Mercurial and Git hosting — that's their core competence.

    2. They have a simple bug tracker that might or might not be enough. I suspect this will be the least good fit: it's a bug tracker, not a project management tool as such.

    3. They have free private repositories for up to 5 collaborators. This makes them a good choice for small companies or small teams like yours.

    Using Bitbucket will of course require that you can put your data in the cloud. Sometimes regulations prohibit this. On the other hand, you avoid having to install and configure your own software and servers.
