The answers for this are not actually deep. I did answer this question
above, but here's the answer again (copy pasted from above):

Github, for better or worse, has more developer activity (or, at
least, the perception of it). This makes Github more desirable over
Bitbucket.

The second reason is because we did use Bitbucket in the past. I'm
worried that using it again would increase confusion with links to no
longer valid repository URLs (in part because we very much modified
the repository structure when we migrated from Bitbucket). While we
don't deliberately leave the old URLs around, they are in mailing list
archives and the like. That source of confusion should be avoided if
possible.

So, even though Bitbucket is nice, the balance of factors leans towards Github.
