But git-over-http is just a normal http client, and http supports redirects. So while nobody does this, it's possible to load-balance http clients to "valid" servers just like you would with any other http-based app.

ssh:// and git:// are more difficult, but project contributers with commit access can just ping you on irc to see what's up with the repo and where to push to today.

That's great, but still requires doing your own setup on your own hostname: conceptually that is a single repository with one URL.
