One of the nice things about distributed version-control is that, when BitBucket went down at $DAYJOB, it was easy to push around changesets between hosts, completetly cutting BitBucket out of the process. When things came back online, just a `git push` to get things back up to the shared repo, and done.
From a version-control perspective, it was basically a non-event here.
