It took me less than five seconds to make the SSH changes and less than five minutes to set up the intermediate server. Now I also have a cache for when GitHub goes down (all the time.)

Isn't the `.git` a cache for when github goes down? Git keeps all of your history inside your repository; you don't need network access to do anything.
Sort of. I've automated synchronizing it with the GitHub repo, so my local repo may be behind the cached repo. I'm also protected if a repository is deleted/moved/DMCAed.
Redundancy, public access and not having hundreds of unused repositories on my computer. I'm not trying to sell anyone on the idea, it just works for me and I like it so whatever.
