In my opinion, the added value of github comes from its social aspects.
You have easily handled tools to create forks and contribute them back to the originator as pull requests, you have ways to discuss those pull requests and all you do is (optionally) visible to the general public. Basically, it's enabling the whole "standing on the shoulders of giants" thing.
Even if you don't use it for calibre right now, I would go ahead and create an account at github, it will come in handy further down the road with other projects
