But attribution is not permanent legal requirement it’s eventually going to expire. And copyright or IP is about the owner of the repository, but not the personal information in a repository. I find it hard that “copyright” or IP applies to personal information unless you are the one owning it, which you don’t if you work for a company. However it could be kind of funny if you work another company contributing to a project owned by another company. About “defense of legal claims”, removing people from the history will only strengthen your claim as the owner of the repo? I’m not convinced that paragraph 3 actually applies here, not sure what exact claims can be done for keeping that information as it is. And can github “hide” behind such vague exceptions?
