Self-hosted isn&#x27;t 100% reliable either. Nobody is that good. I&#x27;ve done serious high availability (financial system that would land on the front page of the New York Times the way Github lands on HN), and it wasn&#x27;t 100%. And the overhead of high availability is incredible.<p>No way would I do self-hosted version control. I have better things to do than babysit servers for commodity services.
