So I am working on Mageia, and you can find :
- rpm on http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages/ ( along with patches )
- software on http://svnweb.mageia.org/soft/
- server configuration on http://svnweb.mageia.org/adm/
- web site on  http://svnweb.mageia.org/web/

and some stuff on git ( http://gitweb.mageia.org, but the web viewer is
broken for the forum part ). You can also have a more regular access
using git or svn as anonymous.

For Fedora, you can find both the code on various trac instances on
fedorahosted( https://fedorahosted.org/web/ ), along with project less
related to the distribution, 
The packages along with patches are on the git repository
( http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/ ).

For Debian, there is lots of stuff on alioth http://alioth.debian.org/
and on various websites, or personal repositories.

Ubuntu place a lot on launchpad, obviously, even if I do not know
exactly where are the packages stored ( but i know they are not hard to
find, there is just lots of stuff wrote by Canonical on the site, so
that's to be expected ).

Gentoo has a website on http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi ,
and mandriva, opensuse and others have been already answered.

Usually, because no one did the job of putting everything at the same
place, or because people prefer to let everybody be free to choose ( ie,
let people free to use github, or their own cvs repository, or anything
).
