Is it really about Clean Code? It seems to me that a big chunk of team interactions was missing! Firstly, was there any kind of review or just a chance for team members to talk about the original implementation before it got onto master? After the fact? Second, Ok, the master commits seem liberal, but why then the boss goes the one-on-one way to make a team-member purge the commit? It seem like a wasted chance at regreasing the team dynamic, let developers find a way to forge the code together. There should be an open channel between devs and also a way for them to express themselves by means of code... without fear of blame or dangers to the mainline. 'Branches are cheap', isn't it? Personal-branch it so it could later be showcased to others, to the boss? IMO, this is more about Open Team, than Clean Code.
