This is a current list of repositories that will host anything (within reason) free under the condition that it is appropriately licensed and open-source.

  1. NotABug
  2. git.sv.gnu.org Free Software Foundation's official GNU Savannah Git hosting

Numerous notable projects are synced to that repository such as Postgres, and Linus's copy of the linux kernel tree. The repository and all of its projects can be inspected on the web thanks to the mod_perl gitweb interface.
