I tend to side with the FSF in this regard, so I'd prefer something
like gitlab which provides hosting, as well as a free software license
to the software they use to host...

similarly it might not be a bad idea to provide a dns alias to e.g.
git.gnustep.org to whomever is chosen to host, though I suppose
encryption complicates the matter...
