By that, I just meant that you're not addressing my points and just arguing aimlessly with cherry-picked snippets from my comments so I just wanted to kill this discussion in a civ…

Thanks for the tip. I ended up consulting a friend of mine (an attorney specialising in company law and ipr) yesterday and it turns out what I'm doing is perfectly legal and foolpr…

Don't have money for that. May be an IP attorney here on HN can help us out?!

So I guess it works in my favor because I own the git repo. There's always something, isn't it. I can change my git timestamps and the employer can change its server log timestamps…

yeah... somebody needs to always make sure not to be the bigger fool... 1) Git commits have timestamps. 2) Proving I did on company laptop is their onus. Innocent until proven guil…
