I am intrigued by the level of sophistication this Google's private git offers. But I'm not probably in their intended audience as I'm not interested in providing my full personal and credit card information just to use git... I am probably just too ingrained in GitHub and AWS to even consider other options. But I'm curious, still. Is it ... good? I hope somebody is going to share their experience with me.

Well bitbucket is free regardless the number of repo so why would I choose Google repos?

Title is wrong: they have unlimited private repositories for free, but for a maximum of 5 users per project.

C'mon, man, click the link before arguing with the premise. Had you done so, you'd have seen in big bold type "Unlimited private Git repositories for free"

Regardless of Git you should check out Google Cloud. Massive improvement in developer experience in comparison to AWS.

It's just git so there's not much sophistication, nor is one service "better" than another in that regard.

Github/Gitlab are still far more useful as they are more than just repos. The issues, PRs, wikis, and general management features are what most projects need. Azure DevOps is probably the best competitor from the clouds.

Is Cloud Source Repositories using the same web app as the internal Cider tool?

We dropped “5 free private repos” from the submitted title. Please, submitters, refrain from editorializing.
