Let's not kid ourselves here, it's because GH is owned by MS.

Its not. This isn't 2000s /. M$ is teh evil!!!11.

Its because GH is not available as self-hosted open source. Doesn't matter who owns it. Github was discussed and rejected by wikimedia back in 2012 as well, which was before MS bought them
