Observations regarding Launchpad Git support.
- They have a gitweb installation and it's possible to browse the code online.
- Overall support seems rather poor at the moment. There is no way to
make a release series point to a Git branch. It's also not possible to make the lp:project link on a project's page to point to a Git branch. I had to set up a Bazaar import from the Git branch on Launchpad (!). The lp:lib2geom link leads to the Bazaar import while the Code link at the top leads to the true Git repository. 3. Branch subscriptions (getting an e-mail after each commit) don't seem to work. 4. It's not not possible to transfer ownership of a repository to a different user or team. (I had to manually re-push as lib2geom-hackers.) This was not possible with Bazaar branches either. 5. It's not possible to delete Bazaar branches if anyone uploaded any code that was derived from that branch.
Thanks for experimenting and gathering this feedback.
I do know some LP limitations like these are work aroundable via contacting the LP admins. Obviously that is no solution for anything we would want to do frequently or on short turnaround.

One thing that wasn't mentioned so far is the broader hosted tools ecosystem. GitHub works with Travis CI - this means we wouldn't need to maintain our Jenkins installation, which suffers from space constraints. (It stopped working again a couple of weeks ago.)
Another very useful thing is that Github can be used to easily publish HTML Doxygen documentation with the gh-pages feature. It can even be done from Travis CI. Maybe we can use our website and a Launchpad commit hook to do that, though.
