I see this argument a lot and it does have some merit, but it ignores the fact there might be an idiot hiring manager standing between you and the job you want. Just because a company might hire a few bad apples doesn't mean they aren't worth working for, for pretty much the same reason a person can still be worth hiring, even if they make a lot of commits for something simple, etc.
Perhaps, but how many hiring managers are able to scrutinize commits in that great of detail? I'd figure anyone that could, would be in a more technical role and likely a developer/developer manager versus HR.
