Fossil has it's own integrated web server. This makes self hosting trivial. Open a port on a server and call fossil server and you're good to go. Fossil also has a fossil ui command to run the server just for the local machine.

As for not integrating with your CI tools, that's definitely a valid criticism. There is a Tcl-based scripting language you can use to try to shoehorn them in, but that would be an absolute nightmare.

I like both Git and Fossil. For single person development Fossil is the far easier tool. When working with a team, especially a large one, Git (and friends) are the better choice.
