DB Browser for SQLite (previously known as SQLite Browser) has a similar history:

http://sqlitebrowser.org

It was unmaintained on SourceForge for years. Some guys put the code on GitHub and started fixing its problems. I became involved after them (to help on the OSX side initially), then contacted the original author. He was happy to see some people continuing it's development, so he gave us admin on the SourceForge project. That let us cleanly redirect people to the new GitHub project, and it's been growing decently from there (~4,600 stars on GitHub, 3.5Mill+ downloads, etc).
