Your project management solution needs to manage all of the deliverables and not just the code. So kudos, to these guys for including defect tracking. May I humbly propose our product <a href="http://www.Code-Roller.com" rel="nofollow">Code-Roller</a> which manages all deliverables including requirements, analysis, design, test plans and defects too, of course. We contribute use of Code-Roller for free in order to build a community where engineers and entrepeneurs get together to deliver great applications better, faster, cheaper.

Using Github/Codebase/whatever, though, to host a repository to act as a sort of centralized repo is, well, just plain handy in many instances. The argument about hosted repos and security is just plain silly. One could say the same thing about any online service that accepts and stores sensitive data. Freshbooks? HighRise? Your credit card numbers on Amazon? Yeah, you could make the exact same argument. We accept these things to be secure, and they generally are. There's no reason to expect any less of a service line Codebase or Github.

I was under the impression that the primary purpose of git was version control (not file storage) and that git is a distributed system (not centrally hosted). The preceding comments have confused me.

Any open source CMS would be fine on a private server.

I laughed at the idea of GitHub - an online service - providing "private" repositories. That concept is wrong on several levels!
