Hi, I'm not sure what you mean by private git hosting, but we intend to host the git repository ourselves, same as we do for svn now. We generally want to host our own code and trackers, and not depend on other companies for this.
On the practical side, Github has the advantage that it is easier for developers to fork the repository and submit pull requests, the barrier to entry would be somewhat lower. The big problem is that we can't customize it, if we run into a problem there is no way for us to solve it. For example, there is no way to customize the bug reporting page with instructions, upload .blend files, add custom fields, move reports to a different tracker or remove confidential data that was accidentally posted. With Phabricator you can optionally login with a Github, Google or Facebook account, so that maybe makes the barrier a bit lower already. Forking and sending a pull request from e.g. a private git repository on Github will be quite quick with the "arc" command line tool that comes with Phabricator, but I'd like to check if we can make it easy without that too.
