Unless I'm misunderstanding how this would work in practice (I assume commits being added under my name or existing commits being modified?), I'm abolutely not buying that though. Way too general, no? I would likely notice something like that, but I know enough colleagues who are just as likely to not notice. Mostly because they don't fully grasp git so they're just like 'hmm, thing says I'm behind, ha I know the fix is pull, yes I'm a git wizard' and just pull then continue working without even checking what got changed.
