Ah, sorry, I meant to control access to different repo's for different groups.

IIRC gitorious is open source, but I just checked and I don't see any access control there; which leaves github, which is not free software I'm afraid.

I think, as Johannes said, keeping two seperate repo's and using some form of access control on those would be best.
