(Author here.) This started as an idea for a clever visualization but turned into a mammoth amount of work. OpenStack, GitLab, the kernel, Chromium and Apache do not use GitHub (or are only mirrored there).

Have a look at http://grimoirelab.github.io, which supports many of the data sources for those projects (but still, you need work to retrieve everything, and analyze, and stuff...)

Yes, this was a big job -- one of the reasons I stopped working on something similar 1.5 years ago was that I wasn't capturing the non-GitHub activity. Of course that back then I also wasn't controlling for bots.
I'm happy to hear ideas for improvements.
