A "pull request" is a feature of github.com. There is no feature of
git-the-software called "a pull request".
Which of course doens't stop you from sending an email requesting a
pull. A "pull", including from decentralized third party repos, is a
feature of git.
But yes, if you get used to the features of a particular free service,
you get locked into that particular free service.
This is certainly part of the overall cost/benefit of using free hosted
services.
