See term D.4., the relevant part of which is
> You grant us and our legal successors the right to store, archive, parse, and display Your Content, and make incidental copies, as necessary to provide the Service, including improving the Service over time. This license includes the right to do things like [...] or otherwise analyze it on our servers; share it with other users
That could be boilerplate legalese for "obviously we need access to your code if we're to display and share it (as is the purpose for a public git host)"
It doesn't matter what the original purpose of the terms was it matters what they do.
