I'm just the maintainer of the repository. The author of the code is 
Harm.
I think I'll edit the author of some commits in order to avoid 
confusion.

An older and limited version of the bend spanner is in openLilyLib. 
Actually this thread was started from a person who was using this old 
code and opened an issue in the tracker:
https://github.com/openlilylib/snippets/issues/175
https://github.com/openlilylib/snippets/tree/master/notation-snippets/guitar-string-bending

I'm against the idea of putting it in OLL.
As it's still a work in progress, Harm so far worked on his own files 
(no git) and post them on the mailing list. The snippets on OLL should 
follow some guidelines and I'm not willing to adapt Harm's code to OLL 
in first place (or if/when a new version is available).

But the code, even if not perfect, is working great already and some 
people are using it. That's why I think it should be hosted on gitlab.
I will open a thread on lilypond-devel.
