I understand why you say git is centralized, but I don’t think it’s accurate. I can work on git while github is offline, I just can’t share that work with others through github, but I can easily upload a repo and we can share it through another service.

At that point we only lose our issues list, etc.

you don't need to upload it anywhere or use any other service...

just use git remotes

That requires exposing your git repo to the internet, unless you’re on the same network.

Email patches!

For that matter, any typical SSH+FS setup with a shared directory can work for a remote.
