Honestly, for however much this project either (a) is a genuine archeological move for the preservation of information or (b) to get good press, all I genuinely thought when this happened is "aw shucks - wish i fixed those bugs before they zapped it onto film and flew it to santa clause". |

Additionally, large-scale github-specific projects like https://gharchive.org (formerly GitHub Archive) have existed for some time.
In my experience, code is more likely than not to be preserved in a stale revision, if at all.
The most common forms of preservation are (a) simple tarballing and (b) git bundles.
