Some guys from a company asked for help with some PHP code and I noticed something weird with the comments.

Keep in mind that this was a production application with decades of usage.

They were writing their names in each added/edited line, including commenting old lines, because no one there even knew what git is.

It gets worse: editing directly into production code.
