Unless Microsoft announce and changes to terms of service, licensing or pricing, there's no need for any knee-jerk reactions to move. Github has always been privately owned, this news doesn't change the fundamental nature of github, and Microsoft will suffer enormous backlash from the development community if they try to change anything significantly about the way the service is run that would be detrimental to open source projects.
If the project did need to move, there are other free-to-use public git hosting services like gitlab.com and bitbucket cloud.
