I wonder how this would work if you have a bunch of shell repos where you can add whatever you want later. That is, your employer surely wouldn't be fine with you creating a competing product based on trade secrets that you were exposed to as an employee, just because it resides in a repo that existed prior to your employment.
> it would be insane to not hire you when you have those repos.
My hiring at a large software company was delayed for weeks because of two enumerated carveouts related to software that had nothing to do with the company's business. And this was when I was being hired as a lawyer! I can imagine for devs or PMs they would be even more sensitive.

I can imagine for devs or PMs they would be even more sensitive. Really? Doing this as a dev is pretty normalized, I would have guessed a lawyer asking for it would be more scrutinized (do you notice a dog in the room if it's brown or if it's purple)
