The exact same code as what? Actually I often wonder when looking for
a project and end up with a Github repository how I could distinguish
the "original" from its clones in a VCS. With the signature by the
known (this may also be a wrong assumption, admittedly) maintainer
there is at least some form of assurance of origin.

This is a steep claim! I agree that nobody reads generated files in
a release tarball, but I am not sure how many other files are actually
read.
