What is the difference between a repository and a project?

I'm not sure what is the difference between a project and repository. If I have several unrelated websites, do I create 1 project and multiple repository or do I create a project for each website with 1 repository?

Project is a container for repositories.

It is used to:

Group similar repositiries
Grant permission for all repositionries.

If you need to have the same read/write permission for set of sites - organise it into a single project.

If you going to store something else but websites on this instance - group all sites into a project.

Project, It will assume that is something that is going to be created, and with it comes time requested, and type. In other words, something that is not a routine, and has time due.

Repository; is where to storage, put, keep the work, since it has to be left in somewhere!!
