If we are still in the acceptance phase of the git conversion (based on some of the comments in the thread this was taken from), maybe we should reconsider Github? What were the advantages of Github vs. other public repositories like Bitbucket?

I believe the reason Github was chosen is that it is perceived that Github has better social features for code review, pull requests etc. Before considering moving to Bitbucket, I recommend simply asking the Github team whether it's possible to add restrictions on a case by case basis.
