The https://standardebooks.org/ project has been rebuilding ebooks (open ePUB format) with an eye on quality and readability on mobiles/tablets (fonts, copyedit, etc.) which might be of interest, all books and the website revision are tracked in git.
I'm a big fan of standardebooks! They're doing fantastic work producing better ebooks from Project Gutenberg sources.

#42This looks like a subset of Project Gutenberg? The Girl from Alsace in Gitenberg: https://www.gitenberg.org/book/35926 The Girl from Alsace in Gutenberg: http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/35926 The numbers are even the same which seems suspicious. Hmmm.

Yes, absolutely. Apologies if that's not clear from the website. GITenberg started as an experimental fork of PG, but due to the work of Eric Hellman at the Free Ebook Foundation, much of the infrastructure such as metadata formats, CI/CD for building books, and DVCS backend are being ported upstream to the Project Gutenberg infrastructure.
