In the case that there was any reduction in service from the GitHub /
Microsoft end, the whole repo (including branches) could be pushed from
anybody’s local clone to any other git provider (including self-hosted)
with no data loss and no need to interact with GitHub, so there should be
no issue there.
Opening up the existing GitHub repo sounds like a good idea :)

Ok. No problem with that.
This doesn't change the fact that it is an external site that is not
under our control. And it is owned by Microsoft which means it could
change...
It was just an idea. No pressure here.

Marius,
I feel like you have not read the pricing information on the GitHub
website.
It is clear under the "Compare features" section that an organization can
have unlimited private repositories on the free plan.
