No, he didn't break into people's house, started their computers and started deleting stuff. It's all the same as the day before yesterday.

Except for they didn't simply push a commit which replaces the code with a readme that tells people to go maintain it themselves or fuck off, they emptied it, rewrote their history and did a git push --force.

And frankly I don't buy the story that they wanted to put the code on their own repository anyways, seems more like a concession because the other contributors also hold some copyright.
