Bitbucket works for me, as long all you do is hosting a git repo there. For everything else, I agree that it feels clunkier and generally less polished than GitHub.

Point in case: I tried – and failed – to integrate Bitbucket services through their REST APIs in my upcoming Mac app (“git push assets” for designers - http://gemba.io).

After 2 fruitless days of trying to get an OAuth access token, I gave up. The Bitbucket way of doing OAuth felt weird to me, and the cluttered documentation (which felt a bit like Facebook’s developer documentation 3-4 years ago) didn’t really help.

Doing the same for GitHub was a breeze. OAuth was straightforward, and documentation was unambiguous, concise and clear.
