Poll: Git Source Code Hosting?

3 points by stanley ↗ HN
What do you prefer for hosting private Git repositories?

On the contrary, are there any you would advise staying away from?

This would be primarily for personal use.

I use GitHub for open source, personal server for other. I tried Codebase once but wasn't too pleased, there seemed to be a bit of git-trouble. After creating a repository, it took close to a hour and a half for the first commit to show up. Afterwards, every push seemed to take an incredibly long time to show up.

Also, the UI is kinda funky imo.

Edit: To clarify, the commits were in the git repo, they just weren't showing up in the web interface.

Some people host it on their own server.

I have had 3 customers have me use github, and that works fine.

For my own stuff, I prefer using one of my own servers.
