How does a private repo encourage members to publish opensource

It's not my premise you're having a problem with, it's my wording.
The point is that, EVEN THOUGH it is desirable to publish and/or open
source, SOME people and projects may wish to develop privately, and
only make the code public after. To make up a random example, what if
the self-driving car race guys had wanted to develop new code for
driving their car.
Other than that, getting a vps and setting up a git repository
would be trivial for me. Setting up gitlab probably won't be much
more difficult. More ease of use things would not be as easy for
me because I am not a good web developer yet and I still haven't
learned django like I wanted to.
I just use a git repo installed in a shared user account on an always
on, always internet connected machine, myself. But for a larger group
of people, and for some users, the sorts of features offered by
github, gitbucket, etc, might be relevant.
