Code snippet / Wiki thing

[hargi]

How do you record code snippets and documentation of things.

Currently in my new job we have a series of how to guides on a network store but this is basically for how to set up a VM from scratch or dump a DB.

What I would like is something more searchable so we can put in the error and solution when we find it.

I like the look of http://www.gistboxapp.com/ for small code snippets which I think could be useful from a personal point of view.

Looking for something free or cheep

cheers

We use a Confluence Wiki for all our documentation in work, there are various plugins that support code snippets with syntax highlighting. It also ties in nicely with Jira for ticket tracking and our code reposities are all in git. This is probably a more enterprise level solution than what you are after but it does work very well for us.

If you just need the documentation/snippets then I'm sure a simple wiki would be cheep and fast to set up.

We do use Jira at work so that could be an option
