Composer, widely-used and adopted packages, frameworks, PSRs, PHP itself and PHP Docs are all hosted on GitHub. Choosing something else increases the barrier for newcomers to become contributors.

I had already decided to spend time and effort learning about the project and then having to learn about their ticketing system and git repository is just unnecessary extra work.
