It's not so much the hosting service providing the upstream repository
which concerns me, it's the lack of development, the lack of a responsive
maintainer, and the lack of a new, stable mintty package.  You're in for
one of the newly created pink plush hippos if you're going to take over
mintty maintainership ;)

Having said that, github is ok.
