Tools like GitBucket (or GitHub, et al) provide a nice web interface to make it easier to look at the code, view history, have discussions about it, etc.

The actual server-side of the Git software does not require this... it's already built-in to Git itself.

It has nothing to do with who is "King of the Mountain", exactly. You could potentially make a host without any web UI be the "master repo" (i.e. King of the Mountain.)

Thank you for clarifying Charles, that was my basic understanding. Is it
also a best practice may be to establish a centralized Repository so there
is one "king of the mountain"? Maybe that's where the aforementioned
GitBucket might be a solution?
