Gitbox would indeed allow you to have the Github tools available to
committers.  It treats Github as the canonical source (we also keep a
copy on Gitbox), which allows the PRs and issues to be a bit more
convenient (there are still some things we can't support due to the
Github's coarse permission structure).
We require all committers to use Github's 2FA [0] so once you have a
taken a vote in the project, file a ticket on the INFRA JIRA [1] and
then your committers can run through the Gitbox syncing [2] to matchup
ASF IDs and Github IDs.
Let us know if you have any other questions.
