I had a director that was obsessed with github enterprise stats. He forbid people from squashing commits and told people to commit every day, even if you're in the middle of something. This was so that he could see who was writing the most code.
One of our interns was close to the end of his term and this director wanted to hire him. He thought the intern was amazing based on the amount of code he wrote. The problem was that this intern was bad, so we had him write unit tests. However, he was also bad at writing unit tests. He would run the code and then write tests that enforced the current results, instead of considering that the current behaviour might be incorrect. Thankfully we didn't hire him after myself and others explained why the intern had so many commits and lines of code written.
