Note however that there is no long-term commitment of any of those main code repositories and that archiving the specific snapshot of your code that was used for a specific analysis along your data is a great idea. Several data repositories offer an integration that lets you do that with data repositories. For example, Zenodo has a great integration with GitHub that lets you issue a DOI for a specific release (read snapshot) of your repository and preserve it independently from the code repository. See [here](https://github.com/OpenScienceMOOC/Module-5-Open-Research-Software-and-Open-Source/blob/master/content_development/Task_2.md) for more details.

Note that one version is not against the other, in contrary you can see your code repository as the live version of your work and the code snapshot archive as the historical trace that was produced for a specific analysis. In other words, we recommend to link both the code repository and its snapshot to the data archive.
