I didn't mean to derail this post asking for hosting options. I certainly 
do not want it to go down a git-hole.

I have had a good amount of experience with CVS, SVN, Git and Bazaar. Years 
worth. Usually when you complain about Git the first thing you hear is that 
I wasn't doing it right or that its a flexible tool and I just have to 
learn it. The amount of Git vitriol out there must be somewhat justified.

I just found Bazaar to be really friendly. Commands work like they do in 
SVN so it is easy to make the move. And I don't see a lot of Bazaar hate 
out there. Then again, hardly anyone is using it. :)

Original poster, Adrian, you are using Git and you are happy with it. I 
don't actually have any private hosting options for you besides setting up 
an sftp server of your own.

But that is usually a great idea. You just need a browser/viewer ala 
viewcvs:

    http://viewgit.fealdia.org/
    https://github.com/toolmantim/bananajour
    http://git.zx2c4.com/cgit/about/
    https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Gitweb
    https://github.com/chad/gitjour

Total control of your repository and essentially free - you just pay for 
hard drives/backups.
