Is the GC open source?

The CoreCLR version of the .NET Garbage Collector can be found at https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/tree/master/src/gc

Not sure if this is the same exact GC because the family tree of .NET Core is complicated, but the CoreCLR project has a GC here:

The post is about the Desktop GC, but AFAIK everything applies to the CoreCLR you linked to. I don't think that much has changed (yet) with the GC on CoreCLR.
