If you were in need of Git hosting and you did not like Github for some reason (I am personally not that crazy about them). You can get free Git hosting at Bitbucket. Not only they give you a free hosting of personal repositories but they also provide a nice wiki and a bug tracking. These are the same guys who develop Jira – a widely used bug tracking system. Although the bug tracking that you get with BitBucket repository is pretty basic, it is enough for most small to medium projects.
But the goodies do not stop here. They offer unlimited accounts for educational purposes and otherwise very reasonably priced accounts.
Oh and actually they offer both HG (Mercurial) or Git hosting through the same interface/website/account :)
