Maybe they have local copies as well, and just figured they might as well take GitHub’s free bandwidth and social networking features.

Fun fact: In french, Github, is pronounced « Guy Teube », where « Teube » is the backslang of « Bite », which can be literally translated by “Dick”.
So to give an example, is as if English speaking peoples would use a service named “Davedick”.
