Bitbucket is no Bit bucket
When github appeared on the internets for the first time, there was a short period of time when I saw the admins of that site jump into many IRC channels of projects that were using git already to switch to github for hosting. Personally for me that was alarming because after a while it appered that git without the hub was no accepted option any more for open source projects.
Ever since we‘re running our own server I think nobody of us ever regretted to host our personal development tools such as subversion (or now mercurial), trac, irc bots and a lot more. Root servers have become pretty cheap (especially in Germany) and debian/ubuntu make server administration a charm.
It really hit me hard when I noticed that people are sacrificing the distributed nature of git and switch to a central hosting location, even though they have their own server infrastructure (I’m looking at you, rails team).
