Yeah, that could be the case. That being said, lots of projects aren't on GitHub, and SQLite does have a mirror there which is kept up to date:

The issue with the mirror is we don't get the important stats to make decisions. E.g. number of contributors, issue changes due to custom issue tracker. We are still thinking on how to add information from such cases in automated fashion, ideas welcome!

Would it be feasible to add support for Fossil, so it's not just a git-only tool?
