It's easy to install a gogs server and upload all the git
repositories there.

In fact, I do have a gogs server for my private development. It
used to be a GitLab server, until I found about gogs.

GitLab looks and feels like GitHub, just with your own URL. Gogs
has less features (lacks groups and pull requests), but it uses
fewer resources.

Therefore it is possible to get all the technical benefits of
GitHub and none of the political concerns.
