I am looking for recommendations for an open source self-hosted version control system source code hosting service. I found a few, but I can’t decide on which one to pick:

If there’s a better one than the ones I’ve listed here, I’d love to hear about it!

I care primarily about privacy and security, if that makes any difference.

    How about Fossil ??

    Basically it’s an alternative to Git itself, has commands similar to git but with an added bonus of having Github-like features, like:

    • Bug-tracker
    • Wiki System
    • Ticketting system
    • Forum + Chat
    • Web-Server

    Best part !! It’s just one file & the website I linked is a self-hosted instance

      Came into the thread just to say this. Very happy and thankful you mentioned it already. I think fossil is THE underrated vcs.

      I’d like to mention https://chiselapp.com/, since OP’s wish is, AFAICT, to have a service that’s hosted elsewhere.
