They gotta bandage their hands then dip the bandages in glue then in broken glass.

With github, gitlab, etc etc, you get much more than just a bare git repo store.

My suggestion is to look at the features of each hosting solution and present those features to the team, discuss the pros and cons, and let people decide what they feel is best for the team.

Remember, you’re not proposing a simple version control system. You’re picking one very important part of an internal development platform: issue tracking, version control, code quality, security scans, developer workflow helper apps, documentation/wiki, build systems, etc etc. Depending on what you already have in the roles other than version control may inform your decision on where to host your git repo.
