I take it that you mean an exchange of patches that does not depend on
having public repos. What are the mechanisms available on that front,
other than patchbombs?

If each developer has a trivial web server, they can put their output 
there, and everyone else can pull from it, because it only needs to serve 
static files out of a directory structure that the programs create 
regularly. Of course, this is only strictly different from a public repo 
in that you don't advertize it beyond the other developers. But it's a 
within-system equivalent to posting a link to a web-hosted patch set, 
which people sometimes do to pass things around.

And so I'd be thrilled to have some site like SF support it.

Eduforge's charter is to host education-related projects, so that's
not a free-for-all-comers, but I'm considering git support, as our
usage of git is growing.

If you contribe the git support to gforge, presumably similar hosting 
sites will pick it up before too long.
