To the topic: did I ever recommend something inherently wrong?
Both systems allow you to mark the repository as 'private'

Then it is mostly just a backup of your local work in case you "twobob" your local disk drive. [**]

Ah - I think that both systems allow you to "share" access to your private repositories to a small group of people.

[**] will be teaching about RAID arrays in next semester's course materials.
