So, aside from DOIs (which anyone can create: http://www.doi.org/faq.html), this post is mostly about free private git repos.
But the thing is, anyone can get as many free private git repos as they like at bitbucket.org right now. You only have to pay when your team is over 5 people, and even then it's pretty cheap. So if you want hosted git but cost is an object, just use Bitbucket. There's no reason to pay a premium for hosted git. It's a commodity.
