Hi Stefano! I think Manoj already gave a good reason about supporting personal repositories on Alioth [1].

If the personal repository stores the Debian package repository, I think its structure should be fixed. Example: I'm the only maintainer of foo, which uses git upstream [2] and I decide to use git for the Debian package as well. Where should I put the repository? Since the other packages I collaboratively maintain are hosted on Alitoh, which already supports git and on which I already have an account, I decide for it [3]. According to [4], personal repositories are stored in $HOME/public_git [5], so this is already prescribed... Honestly, I'd prefer more guides (so, not rules) than nothing at all. Obviously this has nothing to do with debcheckout, which was the way I found this annoyance.
