Do you have a github repo ?

If your release and branching is based on Git and all the work you did resides there, it becomes difficult to switch horses mid stream. If your open source contributors and have accept pull requests then the history gets lost.

Repo isn't centralized, its distributed amongst Github not across systems (Github to Bitbucket or Cloudforge etc.)

You can use bitbucket with git. As far as the repo is concerned, all you need to do is change the remote urls.

I understand if there are post-commit hooks that depend on github integration and bitbucket integration is not available.

It's not difficult to switch horses whatsoever.

In fact, you could add a bitbucket repo in a matter of seconds and use it alongside github. Or in place of.

Pull requests are merges. The history lives in the repo.
