This sounds good :)

I am not sure which page you are refering to.

http://savannah.gnu.org/maintenance/SavaneTasks
describes where the source code is, at 
http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=savane-cleanup.git;a=summary
http://savannah.gnu.org/projects/savane-cleanup

Also, on all Savannah pages, there is a small link "source code" which
is a link to the current file in the Git source code repository above.

So if you want the source code, just type:
git clone git://git.sv.gnu.org/savane-cleanup.git
