The head of HR was Carrie Olesen, who doesn't seem like she had any odd political affiliations:

However, it's worth noting that the statement says "resigned from GitHub," and she was at Microsoft before the acquisition and moved to GitHub. I wonder if it means she's still with Microsoft. Maybe I'm reading too much into it.



Her political donations also look completely unremarkable: Obama, Biden, The Lincoln Project, etc.. I'm not sure what the previous commentator is wondering about possible political affiliations, but she certainly doesn't seem to stand out.
