Git is a DVCS. I know many people only ever used Git through Github and forgot what the 'D' in DVCS means but whether or not they remember what the 'D' stands for, running your own Git server is trivial. Especially in this day and age of LLMs were you can just ask: "Clone this repo and convert it to base Git repo and serve it on the LAN PLZ KTHX".
The result is going to be more stable than Github and, arguably, more secure too.
If you have SSH access to a server and Git is installed on that server, you can use it as a Git server. No additional setup is required. The Git client knows how to log in and invoke the Git server over SSH.
