My answer to Is GitHub a reliable tool if I want to upload all the non-proprietary scientific computing code I have from my hard drive? on Quora

Yes. I find GitHub is a particularly good place to host older code that you might not intend to actively maintain, as it makes it extremely easy for other people to pick up where you left off.
