A bit nitpicky (especially since most of the found misspellings are only in code comments and thus not visible or relevant to users).
The FOSS server fossies.org offers among others a feature named "Source code misspelling reports". Such reports are normally only generated on request, but as Fossies administrator I have created for testing purposes such a codespell based analysis for the GitHub "master" branch of "zypper". That continuously updated report is generated within a special restricted "test" folder that isn't really integrated into the standard Fossies services and should also not be accessible to search engines:
That version independent URL hopefully always redirects to the report for the latest "master" version identified by the short GitHub commit ID and a year-month-day string (YYMMDD) representing the according git pull date (mostly = commit date). The refresh rate is currently half-hourly.
By the way, the context type of the spelling errors and typos are marked by a single character (within the sortable column "T"): The less interesting, probably not user visible ones (in "comments") are greyed, while the probably more interesting ones are black-colored. If JavaScript is enabled all table columns are sortable.
Although after a first review some obviously wrong matches ("False Positives" = FPs) are already filtered out (ignored) please inform me if you find more of them so that I can force a new improved check if applicable.
OK, spelling corrections certainly have a low priority, but they may also contribute to the overall quality of a software project. So I hope that the report can nevertheless be a little bit useful.
By the way, a similar issue report will be created for the related project "libzypp".
Off topic: While planning a zypper upgrade I found in the Internet an according HOWTO that recommends the use of the option --download-in-advance. But in the man page that option is already described as "This is the default" but the excluding option --download-in-heaps is also described as "This is the default mode". Irritating at least to me, so a personal misunderstanding or a documentation error? Since disk space is enough available it seems --download-in-advance would be the preferred option to avoid a possible broken state.

Just for information there are also three supplemental pages showing some used "codespell" configuration details, all obvious false positives and an misspelling history (log).
