If you mean CPython, it's because the devs use Mercurial and have their
own hosting on python.org.
hg clone http://hg.python.org/cpython
http://docs.python.org/devguide/setup.html
github is far from the only place to host an open source project.

It's done with Mercurial, not git, but the same can be done:
hg clone http://hg.python.org/cpython

Mercurial can do all that. I'm not as familiar with it as I am with
git, so I can't quote the commands, but certainly you can do all the
same clone/add/commit/etc with it. I build my cpython straight from
hg, mainly because I like living on the edge :)

You can use git to work on the sources if you wish. Just install a
Mercurial plugin for it and clone the code from the source repository.
However, if you want to contribute to the project, it's still worth
considering to work with Mercurial.

github != git.
