Yes [1]. At that point I was specifically looking for a place with git source code hosting, and, not counting repo.or.cz, it was the only option. I wouldn't actually recommend it because it took more than a month until my project registration was "processed". New project registration was even frozen for a while recently. From my observations of that and the mailing lists, there's basically just one person, possibly a volunteer, doing that and more important administration work. Your files are supposed to be very rigorously reviewed first for all kinds of licencing issues, all the way to FSF addresses at the bottom. And I agree that the bug tracker, as well as practically any other part of the site has serious usability issues (it gets in the way). I think that I would also go with github now (if I had a new project). I couldn't find out if there are any plans for bug tracking there, although my impression is that currently they're mostly focused on getting the git and collaboration done well. It actually seems more likely that eg lighhouse [2] will implement some code integration capabilities based on github's web API. While typing this, I've found out that there's something basic already working [3], from the other direction. If you're really looking for an all-in-one solution then I'd say that assembla [4] is very nice. I'm using Trac and Mercurial (I very much like both now) on it with a friend on a private project daily and it's just great. I see that they offer git as an option now too, which is interesting news, also because it means that there's a working git plugin for Trac.

I'm not sure if this is what you mean, but anyway, for reference, there's msysgit [5], and I've read some praising blog post recently how it's working fine but can't find it anymore.
