Matter of fact, I did, even with help of my advisor. The journal did not take any action (it is Q1 open access journal), since they come up with all kinds of mental gymnastics why it is not copied (which boiled down it is NOT 100% the same).
That was for the first occurrence. For the 2nd one, we just did not bother because it hurts my advisor's reputation as well. It is not in the interest of journal to admit the mistake once they made it -- they will fight you about it and try to keep their reputation/image up.
I can attest to this. I myself am victim of this. My undergraduate thesis was plagiarized by two other papers. Code was 80% the same, they just added some trivial things. No citing of my work at all.
Look at my other comment for more explanation - if you are working under less known advisor, or at less known university, there is a high chance that this will happen if your work is good.
Two times I have published my research code - both times I have found many other papers/projects plagiarized my work without giving me any credit. This happens way more than you would think, especially if you are working under less known advisor, and at less known university.
As the other comment said, if you care about "advancing the science", and won't mind stuff like the above happening, then go for it. In my experience, it is not worth it.
