> How does Bitbucket stack up in terms of reliability?
Used to be very unreliable. It's gotten better, but there are still issues once in a while. There was a big downtime mid-september (a good 3h of nothing): http://blog.bitbucket.org/2012/09/19/post-mortem-on-our-avai... and there were a few issues e.g. yesterday due to a screwy deploy.
edit: checking the recent twitter stream, a few issues on the 28th, degraded performances on the 16th, broken newsfeeds on the 11th, brief network blip on the 5th, maintenance on September 29th, severe crash on September 19th, deploy issue on September 17th. Not sure you'll get much more reliability out of it compared to github. Though you could use one as a backup for the other one.
