Today for nearly anyone starting a new open source project, the default choice for code repository/dev is GitHub.
Companies big and small, developers known (like Linus Torvalds) and even wannabe (like me) all use GitHub. It has eclipsed Google Code and Sourceforge and without any doubt in my mind, it is the best way to build community too, from the code level up.
