There I aren’t many options for displaying a list of things with various filters on that list. Both of these go for that design, as does Gmail.
Many have pointed out that the product GitHub have apparently copied takes inspiration from Gmail, but it also uses iconography from GitHub itself as well.
While I think it would be nice for those who have inspired designs/features/etc to be thanked, doing so publicly or as part of the product is likely going to detract from the user experience for most users who won’t know about the original. A quick thanks by email from team to team may be a better approach, but we don’t appear to have a culture of doing that.
And that’s only if designs were inspired. I’m this case I think it’s entirely possible that these were developed in isolation.
