Alan, 

right! Even if this could be considered a less harmful thing that only
happened in a newly created branch it'd be easy for this person to play
lot more evil tricks somewhere else.
What would you suggest should be done next? Checking logs for traces
of this? Those which could reveal this information might be gone already.
