Yeah, the idea that if you leave, you must have been fired is pretty out there. More people quit than are fired in pretty much every month except when there is a big recession. The BLS tracks this in it's JOLTS time series https://www.bls.gov/jlt/

Currently, the quit rate is 2.4% and the layoff rate is 1%, and the quit rate is almost always roughly double the layoff rate.

Yup, other cases: people move to different groups/projects, take a long leave, take parental leave, etc. There were many cases where they will disappear from a single repo.

Just wait until you hear about git blame

it's just a pithy name

Gotta get the upvotes. People are not interested is git “left the company”

just create an alias for `git turnover`
