Was it a scrape for technical evaluation, or to find other committers?

It seems that if two people communicate on the internet, a third person will be interested in it.

I have no idea what they were doing to get the email addresses, I just know that I got an email that had all (three) of the email addresses I'd ever used in github commits in the 'To' line.

As far as recruiter emails go, it was not very good. Just a generic "we are hiring developers".
