I do this for work I do quite by myself (like theses and articles).
Makes it much easier to keep track of work you do. Co-authors tend to
use different (or no) version control, so even when I used CVS, the
workflow tended to be that of a non-central version control system. I
certainly would not have given others write access to my personal
repositories.
