Publishing a version controlled source repository is actually more stringent than publishing the results of a lab assay, because it contains a record of everything you tried, older versions, and errors (that have hopefully been fixed).
When publishing on wet-lab data, you only publish the assays that worked (i.e., you didn't contaminate the samples, etc.). The wet-lab equivalent of a source repo would be like publishing a video recording of your lab.
