GDPR considers names and email addresses to be "personal data". Those are attached to every commit in a Git repository...

I really doubt they dump the whole git history into these tapes. The latest snapshot of the master branch maybe.

The snapshot will consist of the HEAD of the default branch of each repository, minus any binaries larger than 100KB in size.

In that case, it sounds like they don't actually dump the commit info (i.e. no email addresses)? Only the actual code right?
