    Hacked pipeline? These are just pull requests anyone can submit them.

      They are authentic commits and PRs by real contributors that have been edited and renamed with the PR description changed.

        Oh that is mildly interesting, my mistake. So the actual commits didn’t change but the pull requests are made to look like they are something else.

    How can such thing happen? Was an account hacked that had the permissions?

      It could also be an inside job. Anti-genocide resistance within Microsoft is quite strong and active.
