Git repos on software forges are structured, polite, easy to process, and are ubiquitous. You can provide additional information very easily with simple existing tools to enhance learning.

Like I said, the web's the wild west. It'd require sifting through a lot of noise and there's no guarantee you can reconstitute a sane codebase that you can learn something practical from. So yeah, they could do it, and if the net is indiscriminate it will probably be in there, but trying to target it is pretty pointless given the incredibly tiny returns.
