The feature github has is the large community that uses it and that it has become the de facto standard hosting location. There are multiple forks of matlab-mode on github because that is the easiest place for many people to publish their changes. If we want to collect those changes we have to make it as easy as possible for people to contribute and for many people a github pull request is the easiest way to do that. Working with SF is only slightly more effort, but we have to aim for the minimum. At the least we should have a github mirror that people can raise pull requests against. But if we do that then the SF repo is just extra effort.
