Of course there are, but everything I've tried was a paint to setup. GitBucket was the first project that was very easy to setup: in an existing Tomcat (or other container), just drop the WAR file, and everything works. Also no dedicated machine is required for this (I host it along with other applications)
Edit: You know what would make this awesome. If this project could some how extend GitHub via the API and somehow replace GitHub when it goes down. Sort of like a private HA solution to GitHub incase of an emergency. Now THAT is something that I'd look at and say "okay this solves a new challenge with the current state of hosted Git platforms."
