Well said. Along those lines, for those that would rather not use the proprietary system that is GitHub, we've had good luck over the years with SCM manager [1]. It's BSD licensed but quite polished and very stable, and simple enough to get going on a VPS or similar. Also has native git / hg/ subversion support so you don't have to use one SCM only. Back the VPS up to another location on schedule, and data loss / corruption should be mitigated.
