Project Hosting FAQ

Other FAQs:

Sections:


Getting Started

Who's the service for?

All open source developers. If you plan to start an open source project, we encourage you to create a project on Google Code.

Why is Google offering to host open source projects?

One of our goals is to encourage healthy, productive open source communities. Developers can always benefit from more choices in project hosting.

How do I search for an existing project?

You can search for existing open source projects at:

In addition to searching for free text anywhere in a project, you can also apply the following filters:

  • name: - words that occur specifically in the project name. (e.g. name:google)
  • summary: - words that occur specifically in the project summary. (e.g. summary:html5)
  • description: - words that occur specifically in the project description (e.g. description:html5)
  • label: - specific project label
  • group: link: blog: - projects with text that appears in those project fields (e.g. blog:googlecode)

Is hosting on Google Code available internationally?

For now, project hosting is available only in English. Open source projects can be created by developers from all countries, with a few small exceptions.

Will Google Code be localized into my language?

We plan to localize Google Code as it matures.

Is Google Code's implementation itself open source?

As with most project-hosting sites, our underlying technology is a mixture of open source and proprietary code. For example, the issue tracker is entirely written by Google, but the version-control service is based on Subversion, a popular open source tool.


Hosting Your Open Source Project on Google Code

Why would I want to host my open source project on Google Code?

Our project-hosting service is simple, fast, reliable, and scalable, so that you can focus on your own open source development.

Are there any restrictions on who can use the site?

Just a couple. You'll need to be in a country where Google is able to conduct business, and your project needs to be open source.

Are you going to put ads on my project page?

No. Ads aren't part of Google Code at this time.

How long does it take for my project to be approved for hosting?

As soon as you create a project, it's available for use.

Can I use Google Code to host projects that aren't open source?

Nope. Open source projects only.

Why open source projects only?

Most proprietary software projects have funding, and can therefore afford to pay for commercially offered development tools and environments. The goal of hosting on Google Code is to promote healthy open source development by offering hosted tools that most open source projects can't afford.

What should I do if somebody took my project's name?

Project names are assigned as projects are created on a first-come-first-served basis.

If you feel that someone has created a project that uses your preferred project name, first please consider using a more specific project name that includes more information about your project. Short names can seem to be the most desirable to project owners, but they are often jargon or acronyms that actually provide the no useful information to potential users and contributors. If you are stuck with a contentious name, please contact the owners of the project and discuss the matter directly with them. We rely on the spirit of cooperation of open source participants to work out cases where two groups want the same project name.

Google will not take down projects due to naming conflicts, unless doing so is legally required, or if the project is clearly in violation of our terms of service.

What should I do if I wish to take over a project that appears abandoned by its owners?

In these cases we take a look at the project and ask ourselves some questions:

  1. How long has the project lay fallow? If less than 6 months, don't be optimistic about being assigned ownership of the project.
  2. Is there something "fishy" about the circumstances of the request? People squat project names much as they do DNS names.
  3. Is there code in that project? If so, it is much less likely that we will reassign ownership of that project to you except for the purpose of continuing development of that code.
  4. Is the project scheduled for deletion? If so, we'll likely just give it to you.
  5. Is the project you wish to take over a spam trap or hosting malware or simply not open source?
  6. Have you made an effort in good faith to contact the current owners? What, if anything, did they have to say in reply?
  7. Has one of the original developers died or otherwise dropped off the grid in some fashion that you can describe to us?
  8. Have you hosted malware, spam or non-open source content on Project Hosting before? If so, don't be optimistic that we'll cooperate.

Once you have considered these items and if you still wish to attempt to take ownership of a project or its name, please email us at google-code-hosting@googlegroups.com and let us know about it (include a description of how and when you attempted to contact the project's current owners). We usually bring these issues to resolution in a couple days.

How do I contact the owners of an existing project?

First, look for a project mailing list on the project's home page, and if one exists, use that. If the project does not have a mailing list, then try contacting the project owners (also listed on the project's home page) directly. If their full usernames are shown, you can email them at USERNAME@gmail.com. Usernames of the form "usern..." can be revealed by solving a CAPTCHA.

How do I join a project?

One of the project owners must use the project administration page to add your Google account email address to the project.

Most projects have mailing lists that the developers use to discuss the project. To become a developer, first participate on the mailing list by showing your interest in the project and your ability to help the project. Then, ask the project owners to make you a member of the project.


Accounts

Do I need to have a Gmail account to start a project?

No, a Gmail account is no longer required to create a project, though you will need a Google Account. If you don't have a Google Account already, you can create one now.

Do I need to have a Gmail account to participate in a project?

No authentication is required to browse project pages or issues, or to check out source code. To create or comment on an issue, though, you'll need to be logged in to your Google Account. To manage issue metadata or commit to a project's Subversion repository, you'll need to be logged in to your Google Account and have either an owner or a committer role.

Multiple sign-in

Many users have multiple Google Accounts. It has always been possible to switch between accounts by signing out of one account and then signing in to another. Now there is an easier way to switch between your accounts called "multiple sign-in." Learn more.

First, you must enable multiple sign-in for each account. Then, when you are signed in, you will see a small triangle after your email address in the top-right corner of the web page. Clicking that opens a menu that lists your signed-in accounts, allows you to make any signed-in account the active account, and allows you to sign in to another account. The "Sign out" link signs you out of all accounts.

Your choice of active account on code.google.com is distinct from any other Google service. For example, if you signed in with accounts A, B, and C, and you made B the active account on code.google.com, that does not affect which account is active in Gmail.

Your choice of active account affects all tabs that you have open in that browser on code.google.com, not just the tab where you made the choice. This behavior is similar to that of Google Sites, but different from Gmail, Google Calendar, and Google Docs.

There are currently two known problems with multiple sign-in on code.google.com:

1. Our downloads server does not yet handle multiple sign-in. It will always treat an uploaded file as coming from the first account that you signed in to. If you signed into another account and then find that your upload is denied, try signing out of all accounts and signing in to only the one account that you want to use to do the upload.

2. Some projects may include gadgets on their project home page or wiki pages. Gadgets will only consider the first account that you signed into.


Hosted Tools

Which licenses can be used?

The open source community has been flooded with lots of nearly identical licenses. We'd like to see projects standardize on the most popular, time-tested ones. For that reason, we encourage projects that we host to use one of the licenses listed on our project creation page. The offered licenses offer enough diversity to meet most developer needs, while minimizing license proliferation.

How can I select a license other than the ones provided?

If for some reason, your project cannot use one of the ones listed, there is an option in the license selector to allow the use other OSI approved licenses. Simply select “Other Open Source” and indicate in your LICENSING, COPYING or similar file which license you are using.

How can I choose two licenses for my dual-licensed project?

At this time, we offer single licenses only.

Can I host code that I have placed in the public domain?

Many people are attracted to the idea of releasing code in the "public domain" -- that is, they seek to denounce their personal copyright on the code and donate their work to the world at large.

Unfortunately, the concept of public domain is actually a lot more complicated than most people realize. First of all, some countries (such as France) simply don't recognize the renunciation of copyright. Such countries will still consider you the author and copyright holder no matter what you do. Furthermore, it's somewhat risky to release code without explicitly disclaiming liability or warranty; you're potentially opening yourself to lawsuits from accidental damage that may result from somebody using your software.

Instead of releasing into public domain, it's almost always a better choice to retain your copyright and release under a minimalist, permissive open source license such as the MIT License. The MIT license allows people to do absolutely anything they want with your software, while still disclaiming liability and warranty.

There are certain situations, however, where a public domain license is an absolute requirement. For example, some government institutions require (by law) that all code be released into the public domain. If you fall into this class, please enter an issue in our public issue-tracker so we can review your request.

How do I get a copy of my data?

For issues, users can use the Google Data API to import / export issues from other issue trackers. They would, however, have to write the code to do this themselves.

For code, there are ways to import/ export data. For example, Subversion has svnsync and Mercurial and Git have clone/push.

How do I create web pages for my project?

You can use Google Sites to create web pages, and then create a link to them from your project's front page. Google Docs is another great way to collaboratively create documents and publish them on the web. Or, link from your project to any existing web pages.

Can I use another hosting service for parts of my project?

Yes. If Google Code doesn't have all the tools you need, feel free to start with Google Code and use a combination of tools from this site and others. Use hyperlinks on your project summary page to guide your users to these other resources.

What other limits exist?

There are disk-space quota limits for both issue tracker attachments and total Subversion repository size, along with a limit on how many total projects you are able to create. If you hit these limits, please contact us via our Google Group or email google-code-hosting@googlegroups.com directly to discuss the situation.

How can I integrate my project blog?

You can use a gadget. Click Administer, then edit your project description to include:

<wiki:gadget url="http://google-code-feed-gadget.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/gadget.xml"
 up_feeds="http://google-code-featured.blogspot.com/atom.xml"
 width="780"  height="340" border="0"
 up_showaddbutton="0"/>

But, replace the up_feeds URL with a the XML feed for your blog. If you have more than one project blog, you can list multiple URLs, separated by vertical bars (|).

Why aren't you offering my favorite tool?

We want our collaborative development environment to be simple, fast, reliable, and scalable, so we only offer tools that are aligned with those goals. This way, we can manage and support the tools we offer in a scalable manner.

If you need more tools, you might choose to run them yourself on your own servers, or you might make use of individual tools that are offered by other project-hosting sites. You can loosely integrate with other tools and websites by linking to them from your project-summary page.


Google Groups

What is a Google Group?

A Google Group is a mailing list hosted at groups.google.com. Each Google Group has an extensive web interface, but you are also perfectly welcome to use it as a plain-old mailing list.

Does creating a new project on Google Code automatically create a Google Group for me?

No. Google Code offers the ability to send issue tracker and Subversion commit emails to mailing lists of your choice, but it doesn't create those mailing lists for you.

How do I create a mailing list for my project?

You can visit Google Groups and create as many mailing lists as your project needs. We recommend that you create at least two lists: one for developer discussions and one to receive Subversion commit emails.

Can I use an existing mailing list with my project?

Sure. Just link to its existing web interface using a regular project link. If you have an existing mailing list for automated commit messages, enter its address in the form that is under the "Administer" tab.

How do I make my mailing list accept Subversion commit emails?

Simply configure your mailing list to accept posts from PROJECTNAME@googlecode.com. You can do this by adding the address to the "allowed posters" list, or by making that address a member of the list with no delivery.


Other Questions

Will hosting my project here improve its PageRank?

No. Your PageRank will only improve if other websites think your project is important and link to it.

How do I import my project from SourceForge, Tigris, or another site?

We have no import feature at this time.

What technology does the site use for its operation?

Like most Google products, the site is built on scalable Google infrastructure and uses AJAX for the user interface. The issue tracker is written in Python, and uses Google's free-text search technology. The Subversion server is based on the standard open source product, with changes to run on Google's infrastructure.

If I find a problem with the hosting on Google Code, how do I file a bug?

Visit the user support issue tracker. Check whether an appropriate issue has already been created, and if not, create one yourself.

How do I file a feature request for Google Code?

Visit the user support issue tracker. Check whether an appropriate issue has already been created, and if not, create one yourself.

What information does Google Code collect about users?

Check the Google Code Terms of Service for more information, with specific reference to our privacy policy.

What measures is Google Code taking to protect the privacy and security of people's information?

Privacy and security are extremely important to us.

Google Code uses your Google or Gmail account for authentication. For Subversion authentication, a secondary generated password is used. Logs of your activities are not released to any third parties.

For more info, please check out our Terms of Service.

I'm new to open source... how do I run an open source project?

If you are new, you should plan to participate in existing open source projects to learn how they work. You might also want to check out Karl Fogel's book, Producing Open Source Software.

Is Google Code going to integrate with other Google products?

To some extent it already does. For example, it uses Google Accounts for authentication, and the issue tracker uses Google's search technology. Look for more integration with other Google products as the site matures.

I found a project that's not open source. Who do I notify?

please contact us via our Google Group or email google-code-hosting@googlegroups.com directly to discuss the situation.

How do I report a copyright or intellectual property violation?

Please read the Google Code Terms of Service, then follow the instructions on our DMCA page.

How do I report abuse of Google Code site?

please contact us via our Google Group or email google-code-hosting@googlegroups.com directly to discuss the situation.

What should I do when I am notified that my project contains malware?

When we find malware in a project hosted on Google Code, we take down the project and notify you. To have your project republished, you need to remove the malware.

Unfortunately, it is very likely that one or more of the machines used by the project developers are infected, and that the malware spread itself to a file in the project's source code repository and/or downloadable files. Therefore, before scrubbing your project, we strongly recommend that you install reputable anti-virus and anti-malware software, and use that to ensure that your machines are all free of malware.

Once you have insured that your machines are malware-free and protected, you should do a scan of the files in your source code repository and download area, and delete/clean any files that contain malware. This will ensure both that your project is free of malware, and that you do not risk reinfecting your project at a later date.

When you have cleaned the project, contact us at the address listed in the notification email, and we will republish your project after checking that it is once again free of malware.

What should I do if I've been banned from Project Hosting and wish to regain access?

If you feel that the ban was erroneous, please write to us (at google-code-hosting-account-resolutions@googlegroups.com) explaining why.

If the ban was justified by your behavior on the site, we recommend that you find other ways to participate in open source and after a period of some months contact us (at google-code-hosting-account-resolutions@googlegroups.com) pointing out your new behavior and asking for reconsideration.

Comment by azmatali...@gmail.com, Mar 11, 2009

If you want membership in a project, you must contact the project owner via email. Leaving a comment on this site-wide FAQ page will not help you.

Participating in the project mailing list is a good idea before requesting membership. Once you have done that, you can ask for membership on the project mailing list and the project owner should see your message.

If the project does not have a mailing list, then try contacting the project owner directly. If the full username is shown, you can email them at USERNAME@gmail.com.

If there is no mailing list and all project owner and member username look like usern...@domain.com, then you can consider leaving comments on an appropriate project wiki page, or filing an issue in the project.

"At this time, we've tested compatibility with Mozilla Firefox 1.0.4 and 1.5, Safari, and Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 and 7.0 beta 3. "

Seriously?

Comment by ggr...@gmail.com, Apr 3, 2009

Subversion 1.4.0?

Comment by dglasser, Apr 6, 2009

ggreif: Good catch; we've actually been on 1.5.4 for some time now (and will be on 1.6 soon, though 1.6 doesn't have much in the way of server-side changes).

Comment by javawiza...@gtempaccount.com, Apr 6, 2009

So if the subversion respository quota is 100MB by default, is there any way to see how much of that a project is currently using?

Comment by jrobb...@gmail.com, Apr 7, 2009

peter: We only host open source projects. If you are just shy about other people seeing your code, don't worry about it, everyone's code starts off very rough. We host some really good open source project, but we also host a ton of really bad ones, so yours could not possibly be the worst :). If you want it to be closed source to keep some security secret, that probably won't work out well anyway.

Comment by mark.th...@gmail.com, May 17, 2009

I couldn't get the steps given above for How do I download my Subversion history to work on windows xp(sp3). Instead I had to create the batch file, pre-revprop-change.bat in the hooks directory of the local repos:

set repository=%1
set revision=%2
set userName=%3
set propertyName=%4
set action=%5

if /I not "%userName%" == "averagejoe" goto ERROR_USERNAME

goto :eof

:ERROR_USERNAME
echo "User: %userName%, Only the averagejoe user can change revprops" >&2
exit 1

This will allow user 'averagejoe' to do revprop changes. Of course, 'avergejoe' needs to be replaced with the relevant USERNAME.

Comment by gabe.johnson, May 20, 2009

My project involves source code written in a weird language that is not understood by the syntax colorizer used in the subversion browsing UI. Is it possible to write some sort of plugin that can do this? I have my own colorizer and ANTLR grammars for this language, not to mention copious "free" time.

Comment by duongbkit@gmail.com, Jun 13, 2009

Members of my Project can not check out by TortoiseSVN.It thrown error "OPTIONS of 'https://myproject.googlecode.com/svn/trunk': authorization members". How to resolve it.Please help me.

Comment by salmiak...@gmail.com, Jul 10, 2009

I found out that you can't really change between Subversion and Mercurial as easy as it seems to be.

I got some nasty errors when trying to browse my code and edit wiki pages. Just wanted to notify it somewhere. I should probably mail Google somehow and notify them on the problem.

Comment by zexspect...@gmail.com, Jul 19, 2009

Do you provide some basic statistics for project, for example svn traffic, web traffic and so on? Any gadget can do that?

Comment by jrobb...@gmail.com, Jul 19, 2009

zexspectrum, you can sign up for Google Analytics and then enter your Analytics account number on the Administer tab in your project. That measures web traffic only. Also, downloads show a count of the number of times each file was downloaded.

Comment by zexspect...@gmail.com, Jul 22, 2009

jrobbins, thanks for the answer. Using Analytics is good if you are a project owner. But is there any way to display project stats for non-members? For example, sourceforge.net has Project Statistics on Project Summary page. Can I place Google Analytics gadget on my project's summary page and show traffic to non-members?

You say that you only support a limited number of open source licences, but I can't find any list of which ones those are. Where is the list, please? (I would have expected a link from the FAQ entries.)

Comment by tom.cand...@gmail.com, Sep 10, 2009

I want to delete my project. How do I go about this?

Comment by keanen.shaw@gmail.com, Sep 20, 2009

Someone marked my project as "not open-source". Of course, it isn't open source, but can someone get back to me and either have it removed or unspam it?

Comment by kj4...@gmail.com, Sep 27, 2009

Is there a way to quit a project?

Comment by fridgeb...@gmail.com, Oct 5, 2009

I tried to set up a google group for the commit notices, but was unable to do so. There is no "allowed posters" list, as the FAQ implies. And I could not set codesite-noreply@google.com as a member of the list. What is the solution?

Comment by philli...@gmail.com, Oct 11, 2009

I have a question, I want to use this not for programming purposes, but for a translation group I have, I find the system incredibly useful and it's worked wonders on our project. We're basically using it to host subtitle files, jpegs, txt's and things like that, I don't need to say that there's absolutely no copyrighted material in it. Is it okay if we use Google Code for it?

Comment by imme.emo...@gmail.com, Oct 31, 2009

The answer to the question: "How do I make my mailing list accept Subversion commit emails?" might be quite old... It says: "[...] accept posts from codesite-noreply@google.com. You can [...]" When I did set something like it up in google-code, it gave me a different address, which was specific for that application.

Comment by eltro...@gmail.com, Nov 2, 2009

for tortoise, first create a directory where you want to work. right click on it, select checkout. http://yourproj.googlecode.com/svn/ now you are at rev 1. copy files into trunk, right click and add trunk right click to switch to https://yourproj.googlecode.com/svn/ use your google or gmail name/email and the google code password from your personal google settings page. add a commit message, copy and paste it into a notepage because you may have to enter it again if something goes wrong. what pain figuring all this out... if you start w/https:// you need auth just to view it... auth can be wrong, it isn't obvious what user name or password will work. no doubt by posting this simple info someone will now know a better way. shouldn't have to look through 10 pages to get the details. but hope it saves you a few mouse strokes.

Comment by npquang....@gmail.com, Nov 20, 2009

I have add some members to the project committers (Administrator -> Project members tab) but they can not check out the project. Just the owner with generated pass can check out. What is my problem?

Comment by can5...@gmail.com, Dec 21, 2009

Why open source projects only? Most proprietary software projects have funding, and can therefore afford to pay for commercially offered development tools and environments. This statement tells nothing but open source is the poor man's choice only. It's disappointing. What sort of person today can call himself a programmer and not afford less-than-$10/month hosting? The profession of sw development has not become so low , thanks guys :-\

Comment by green.ti...@gmail.com, Feb 26, 2010

I have the same question as keristor. Which licenses does Google Code support? I can't find a list anywhere.

Comment by davidjgrant1978, Feb 26, 2010

@can5koy:

In reference to the Why open source projects only question, the statement "most open source projects can't afford" is not the same as "most open source contributors can't afford". If you look at an open source project as a business, then you can appreciate that spending money on infrastructure can make it a lot harder to make a profit.

I, like many other open source contributors, freely devote my time to a project. I don't expect to be paid for my efforts, but I would prefer it not to cost me anything either. Removing barriers to entry for open source projects can only encourage their development.

Comment by brdavid@gmail.com, Mar 21, 2010

How can I keep non members from seeing the code. That is like Google Groups, unless you are invited I don't want anyone outside of the membership to see into the code. The reason I ask is I have permission from a company to post their copyrighted data as a database for a project. However I feel as if in order to uphold this copyright I need to make sure only members I invite can actually "see" the source code. Is this possible? Thanks!

Comment by jrobb...@gmail.com, Mar 21, 2010

brdavid, at this time we only host open source projects. So, if you use our servers at all, the source code must be visible to everyone.

However, we are tracking an issue for users who want private hosting. You may want to star issue 1829.

Comment by slabrams...@gmail.com, Mar 25, 2010

We have started an open source project and are investigating various code hosting services. Although we are using the BSD license for all code produced by the project partners, our system also uses a number of third party packages whose jar files are included in our distribution. All of these contributions are open source, but some of them use licenses not on your supported list. Is it acceptable to have a project hosted on Google Code that incorporates multiple licenses? Is it acceptable if some third-party components of the project do not use approved licenses?

Comment by cale...@gmail.com, Apr 9, 2010

How size does google allow for an account in SVN? And how many projects does google allow for an account?

Is there way to add members to a cloned project? Why would this feature not be available??

Comment by iv...@symbian.org, Apr 28, 2010

I have come across a "project" that is actually using GC as a hosting service for distributing not-entirely-legal copies of stuff. This project has no code, just a few PDFs of books. The project is marked as apache license, but all content has intricate copyright notices inside. I couldn't find any way to report this so apologies if this is the wrong place.

Comment by project member jrobbins@google.com, Apr 28, 2010

iv...@symbian.org, That project is gone now, because they had no source code. The best place to report abuse is to email google-code-hosting@googlegroups.com.

I am hosting with SVN - does anyone know why my URL has mysteriously become '404 Not Found'?

Comment by mike...@gmail.com, May 29, 2010

So I've got a project named 'dastoobnet', and I registered the domain 'dastoob.net'. How can I get my gcode project page content to show up under dastoob.net? An HTTP 301 from http://dastoob.net/ to http://code.google.com/p/dastoobnet/ would work, but it's not ideal.

Any plans to support AGPL? For a web-services oriented system like GWT, it seems that AGPL makes more sense than GPL.

Comment by cogdogb...@gmail.com, Jul 19, 2010

Its been five days, and the project I own, and am logged into, continue to refuse to let me upload a new download. It keeps saying my client does not have permission to access xxxxmyproject/uploads and says "missing fields".

None of this is true, I have tried at least 10 times, tried diff browsers.

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hello, my problem is contacting with devevelopers and owners of the Google project. I read to recomendations "How do I contact the owners of an existing project?" and "How do I join a project?" and I have the same problem. The recomendations didn't help me. Easy example: I want to contact with http://code.google.com/p/alui-toolbox/ project and fabiensanglier user. No e-mail and Goggle group on the page... How can I sent the request to join to the project??? P.S. Only several projects have any E-Mail on the page. Maybe It's a goog idea wnen the Google add some special mechanizm of messaging in Google Code portal when after login the user can see message sent by other users or these messages will be sent automatically to the user e-Mail. The user will be able to lock bad users and send complain to Google. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How to localize a project's home page? The home content is not stored in svn, so http://code.google.com/p/support/wiki/WikiSyntax#Localizing_Wiki_Content won't help.

Thanks!

Comment by project member jrobbins@google.com, Aug 28, 2010

liukaixuan: There currently is no way to localize the project home page. What you could do would be to put a link on your home page that goes to a wiki page that is localized to several locales.

In response to those who want to delete a project:

Unpublish and schedule deletion: My Profile > link next to "owner role" > Administer tab > Advanced (sub-nav link) > "Delete Project"

Directions after you request deletion say that the project is eligible for deletion after 29 days. I haven't gotten there yet, but I figure you have to come back to finalize the deletion if you want to remove it completely.

Google Groups have removed the option to add members directly. This makes the Google Groups useless as mail listes for commit messages etc. since the mail address used by Google Code can not be added as a poster. Thanks Google. You just destroyed one of your best features. Github here I come.

Is there a way to block the Google web crawler for project code, or from pieces of project code? We don't mind the source being available for people who specifically want to look at it. But it contains some information, specifically user email addresses, that we do not want to show up on a Google web search.

Update Collision

What happened?

While you were viewing or updating CompilerIntroduction?, another user submitted an update to it. That user's update has already taken effect. Your update cannot be saved because your changes could overwrite the other user's changes.

Note: if you have been viewing and updating CompilerIntroduction? in multiple browser windows or tabs, it is possible that the "other user" is actually yourself.

Your options: Start over: view the up-to-date CompilerIntroduction? and consider making your changes again.

why this happened? I've done nothing, the whole project has only one member that is me, no one could have been edited this theoretically ....

We would like to use google project software for preparation of a scientific paper. Certainly, before it is published we do not want somebody else to see our results. This is a pure scientific research, the same in spirit as an open resource project. Because after article is published arXiv.org, its ideas available to anyone for free. But we need privacy on prepublishing stage. Can we get it?
