Doesn't look like it[1].

I'm not sure that a much wider github would be of use to me. Most projects usually place some kind of limitation on the number of characters per line and even in the file browser I don't find filenames long enough to take that kind of space. Maybe you have some other use cases worth sharing?

My team's inherited code (legacy code) where not all lines are trimmed to 80 or even 120 chars. Long file names or deeply nested directories aren't something I run into currently, but I recall running into them on several J2EE apps in the past.
