So you’re saying that if I put up my own Git server (for a fee), it’s likely to have better uptime statistics than GitHub? I can’t push changes to the decentralized Git protocol, only to a (centralized) server instance.

Setting up your own instance of a bit server is free. If you want issues, CI etc... Then you need a local version of github which you will pay for.

  Or GitLab. That's free and easy to self host.

    Bingo. People think its hard to self host. Its not. They have an omnipackage that you install. You run updates. You enable the automatic backups. Problem solved!

      But maintenance is where people can have issues. GitLab is complex.

  Well... unless you use something like gitlab https://about.gitlab.com/ https://about.gitlab.com/ - which is also free, and has support for issues, CI, etc. (snap!)

  Personally, I prefer something more lightweight and for some time I've been using gogs - https://github.com/gogits/gogs https://github.com/gogits/gogs (so far so good)

    Is gogs maintained anymore? Everyone I know switched to the community fork, gitea.

You can email patches. This is now the Linux team works.

  The code for git itself is also managed the same way (though I don't think there are any subsystems in git, unlike the kernel).
