mattdebord and estel: I'm one of the core Gitorious committers. What specifically did you find messy? The initial setup or GUI/UX? Honest question, as we're constantly trying to prioritize based on the painpoints of users. :)
BTW we've recently addressed the complicated manual setup with a new, automated installer that gets you set up within 30 minutes: http://getgitorious.com/installer

Also, a new and improved UI is due to arrive in Gitorious soon: http://blog.gitorious.org/2012/08/21/sexy-looking-repositori...
All feedback is very welcome.
It's been quite a long while for me, so I couldn't be more specific for you. My recollection is that it was very complex, that's really all I've got.
I just setup a local Gitorious install this weekend. Really nice to see this planned advance in the UX.
