Private code sharing. You have to install something like gitolite (see my other comment) to do private code sharing with git on a VPS, or you'd have to create a system-level user for every person you want to share code with.

Webfaction actually allows you to create a git repo with web interface that can be shared privately.

It is one of their "one-click" installations and I have been pretty happy with it for my limited use.
