We have that problem with Github. We're a three person company and we do most of our work on iPhone apps. We spend 95% of our development effort in our main repo for our main app. But we have some other repos for the website and for some contracting, and for some experiment projects that make the most sense in their own repos, but Github penalizes us for that.

We'd probably have 30 projects on Github if their pricing was set up differently instead of cramming it into 20. We're already paying them 50/month, which seems high.

If we were a larger company that worked less with outside people we could just have one repo that was a misc catch all, and put things in folders inside that, but we often need to manage permissions with outside people.



Why not jump ship to another provider? Bitbucket, for example, charges "per user" rather than per repo.
