Yes, you are. If you would have bought their product (paid Git hosting), but you used somebody else's product instead (Gitolite), then that other product (Gitolite) is competing with Github for your business.
I agree that there is a subset of the market that (a) won't or can't figure out Git hosting on their own, or (b) decides that paying for a Github account will actually be less expensive. But I never said that Gitolite will ever replace Github.
