I'm not talking about putting production bits on my own git server, either. I'm talking about how easy it is to create a couple of personal remotes just as a second and third copy of whatever I happen to be working on on my laptop. One goes to my NAS and one goes to my rackspace VM that I keep around for random projects. I have github and bitbucket accounts, but for little projects, I much prefer the simplicity of effectively just having dupes of my repos on other machines of mine. And it's really nice that the way I interact with them is precisely the way I'd interact with github or repositories at work, despite the fact that they're just directories sitting behind an ssh connection.
