Exactly. The entire reason Git was created is because a proprietary version control platform (BitKeeper) was given too much trust and power over Free Software projects, which it inevitably abused.
The whole point of Git is that you don't have to surrender control. GitHub is just another BitKeeper. If you really want a Web interface there's Gitorious (which has been around longer than GitHub) and GitLab.
The number of Git-backed Wikis, bug trackers, filesystems, etc. is huge too, judging by the New Packages I see in aptitude every few weeks.

- jamie_ca 13y agoI see nothing on Rhodecode's website indicating it is open source, by any definition of the term.
- zalew 13y agoyeah, looks like they removed the info. https://secure.rhodecode.org/rhodecode https://secure.rhodecode.org/rhodecode https://github.com/marcinkuzminski/rhodecode/ https://github.com/marcinkuzminski/rhodecode/ https://bitbucket.org/marcinkuzminski/rhodecode/ https://bitbucket.org/marcinkuzminski/rhodecode/
- marcinkuzminski 13y agoHey, i'm the creator of RhodeCode, we're still open source, the whole core is still GPLv3. It's stated in our header of the enterprise release: https://rhodecode.com/enterprise https://rhodecode.com/enterprise. cheers
