Would using GitHub as a work experience portfolio, including personal projects in various languages/frameworks, be a good practice when seeking employment?
Yes. You'll want to target the specific companies you are applying to, as well. For example, does the company you are targeting value, use, or promote open source projects? Then find some contributions you can make, especially if that company has their own open source projects on GitHub.com.
Definitely host your own projects with a very clear README.md that explains the purpose of the project, anything that showcases design decisions you made, and clear instructions on how to launch/run your project.
No, Since github functions as a site where you host your codes, employers won't have time to access and examine each of your codes.
Yes,
Your future employer may not check out your code, but it will prove that development is your hobby and not only your job.
Put your github repo link in your resume

I am using GitHub for my git repository. Now there are some tasks like "implement feature x" that still have to be done for my app. Is it possible to manage these tasks on GitHub? How? There are issues, but for me issues are problems, bugs, etc. and not tasks - or is my understanding of the term "issue" wrong?
"Issues" is an implementation of what other websites call tickets and sometimes just bugs.
What you use it for is basically up to you to decide. Bugs are an obvious example, but definitely not the only ones. Github provides tags to provide metadata to issues and one common usage of tags is to indicate what kind of "issue" it is.
As an example Angular has a feature tag which they put on issues that are about adding features. Many other project use a similar structure.
Basically: if it will lead to code being merged then it can definitely be an issue and you'll benefit from all the inter-linking within Github. Even if it doesn't result in code (such as topics related to organization of a project) it might be appropriate to put it into Github issues.

Someone copy my github repository and created another github repository simillar to my own. That person changed my name with his codename. And didn't even put a credits.
Is that considered as Plagiarism?
If no, can you explain why?
And if yes, can you tell me what I should do?
It is plagiarism. Which is perfectly legal, unless it leads to fraud (like getting a job based on the brilliant code in a git repository that the person never wrote). In academia it will have massive consequences if found out.
More important, it is copyright infringement. Send a DMCA takedown notice to github, and the repository will disappear very quickly.
In some countries, Germany for example, it violates the right of authorship, which is your right to claim that you wrote the code. In these countries nobody has the right to say they wrote the code when you wrote it, not even your employer - as long as you wrote it. Note this is separate from copyright.

What project management solution can you use for grouping together related commits? Lets say you have a few hunderd modules and you need to make changes which affect 5 or 10 of these. Is there a solution that lets you open a ticket and track your subversion commits while keeping a group of people in the loop?
This would depend on the size of your team.
A small team can settle for just using GIT/SVN (or any CVS really) and make sure that everyone pulls/fetches from the integration branch frequently as a habit. If needed, use email to inform everyone about code changes or do scheduled commits to integration branch. This way, instead of letting people know that you did a commit, you can tell people when to expect a commit.
If we are talking about a big team/s, Project Management tools like JIRA should have the flexibility to send an email to a watchlist once a task is done (effectively, a code was pushed) and provide other information about the finished task (such as Affected versions/modules)
Actually, there are different ways to answer your questions depending on the need and workflow of the team but hopefully I've provided some ideas for you here.

Are there any open source projects any of you would recommend to follow or contribute toward, including those already documented among the zf contributors, to add zend framework scaffolding of crud functionality for rapid development as found in most competitors frameworks?
As a contributor of not only the language and framework, but also as a user of zf on a daily basis, I know this is a topic of interest and I feel professional developers like you would find here would have something to contribute toward my question and finding a library that is underway that can be contributed to.
Still pointing out one Repo that generates a new module with folder structure, config and module class
Inforbiro / ZF2-Code-Generator
While personally i feel this to be more troublesome than doing it by hand, it's a first step only. Though it appears development already has stopped, for now.
If ever (and i'm pretty sure) there will be a ZF2-Tool, you'll find it at the zf-commons repository

Sorry, apparently this is not an appropriate question to ask, i've learned, at stackoverflow. Didn't realize this kind of question wasn't allowed since it doesn't have code I guess.

I'm looking for alternatives to view my source code repository and run metrics on it.
Have you looked at Review Board? It's an open source tool that is used on google code and is picking up some steam in general. I ended up not using it for my particular project because it didn't provide a user-friendly way to do post-commit reviews. I imagine the web interface has improved dramatically since I evaluated it last year.
If Review Board doesn't match your requirements, consider posting more detail on what your looking for so we can have a better chance of pointing you in the right direction
You should checkout ZebraPlan.
From my experience, ZebraPlan is a much better and easier alternative to Atlassian Fisheye and Crucible. ZebraPlan has a built-in code review feature that allows you to easily connect to your source code repository. Keep in mind that you can’t validate code with Fisheye, but you can with ZebraPlan. You will definitely save time and money using ZebraPlan. Fisheye charges $800/month for 10 users and unlimited repos and ZebraPlan charges $43/month for 10 users and unlimited repos.
Here’s a short video that showcases ZebraPlan’s “Code Review” feature: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Gxg_d-5vuw
I hope this helps!
