I run a gogs[0] instance, which is a GitHub clone with great performance characteristics. I use it for both company and personal projects, and we haven't had any downtime. No more productivity drop when github is down :D.

I recently discovered another huge dependency I have when coding though : StackOverflow. That's going to be a lot harder to replace though...

PS: Yes, I realize the irony in using a github link here...

It could have been the motto of RhodeCode (https://rhodecode.com). Self-hosted repository management not only has a benefit of having one's uptime under control, but also is much more secure.
