We simply need to decide between own hosting (incl. git repo by OSGeo)
and effectively commercial providers (github, gitlab, bitbucket, ...).

As long as we do not depend on highly specific features of such a
platform, migration to another git based platform will remain "easy".

We should carefully try to identify potential single points of failure
like service unstable, unmaintained in the long run, pay-only traps
and the like. But unless we use the standard features of git along
with maybe CI we are relatively flexible in choosing the platform.

Just my 0.02 cents,
Markus
