As I mentioned in my other reply Jira would be an addon to github not a 
replacement.

Atlassian has an product called "stash" [1] which is competing against 
github.

If people are looking into alternatives for an web-based git repository 
solutions to github some comparison can be found here [2]

I myself however is more invested in other aspects of the community than 
which web-based git repository solutions should be used
( what mattered only to me in that area was the move to pull requests 
since it was an key component for things to work in the long run and 
voila we have that with github ).

My area of interest is the infrastructure, qa documentation and such is 
where I see the necessity of laying the correct foundation so we have 
the room for growth, collaboration as well as it being the place which 
results in better utilization of individuals contributed time ( 
developers and others, for example we need to start offloading some work 
of developers at this point in time by my account ) .
