It doesn't look like GPL-3+ to me:
,--[ LICENSE ]
All the source code reside in this repository are licensed under GPLv3.
Photographs are licensed under 3 different licenses:
1. CC-BY-NC 3.0 for photographs in the deepin directory.
2. CC-BY-SA 3.0 for photographs in the deepin-community directory.
3. Photographs in the deepin-private directory are not permitted to use without authorization.
`----
I see no code in copyrightable amounts, just a short Makefile.
/deepin/ is CC-BY-NC 3.0, which is non-free.
/deepin-private/ tries to forbid even use (which a pure license cannot do),
and bears no permission to distribute.
/deepin-community/ has a good license, but I think I've seen at least one of
the images elsewhere -- among default images on Windows. I can't check
that right now (I won't have access to a Windows install for at least a
week), so it might be just a similar photo of the same geological
feature. Or they might have come from a common freely-licensed source.
Also, the license grants rights to only photographs, while images in
/deepin/ are non-photographic. This seems to me to be a bad use of the
word rather than something intentional, though.
On the other hand, some of the images are awesome! I especially like the
"ghost forest" in -community, while the trees in -private have a nice
pseudo-tiled look.
