FWIW, at Eclipse we've tried mirroring a number of projects to Github,
and we've found it to be generally broken and have since given up on
Github mirrors. We host our Git code in-house as well, for the same
reason you've mentioned.
As a long-time bugzilla user & admin, I'm happy to see this discussion
happening. Thanks to the team for all the great work.
