From Gephi:Wiki

Gephi source code is hosted on Github platform, and use Git for source control. Getting Gephi’s sources in a "read-only" mode is straightforward and don’t require any registration. However, for contributors and plug-ins developers you'll need to sign-in on Github and set up your account. Hopefully, this is easy and well documented. This tutorial covers how to get the code and set up the proper environment.
