That depends: If you use it merely as a git repository, it is as good as any git hosting.

If you start to depend on non-standard features of it (e.g.: bug reports, wiki), you can call it a proprietary infrastructure, is switching from it won't be trivial.

Actually the github wiki offers a set of standard markup formats (Textile, RestructuredText, Markdown, ...), and its contents are available as a git repo. So i wouldn't call it proprietary either.

What would it take to use that in git.kernel.org or in your own personal git server?
