Hi Philipp,
I don't know for sure, but I _guess_ it has to do with the GPL complaints from last year. Putting information together it seems like this went to court, probably in Germany. Therefore if they host outside Germany, this might happen again. As I said, this is guesswork. If this is the case it shouldn't be a problem for someone holding no copyright to host it anywhere he wants and just pull every commit from Germany. After all, GIT is making such things easy.
Cheers Morty

why the requirement about the location in Germany? Otherwise I would suggest alioth.debian.org.
