The fact that moving WiX out of public Github did not generate any emails while moving it back did generate a lot of emails is the suspicious part. There's probably an utterly mundane explanation as to why, but it's also possible that there's a MS-only "move this repo without notifying anyone" option.
Moving it out back to public GH was done by transferring the repo(s) between organizations. The move into GHE moved the organization as a whole to GHE. So it's conceivable that moving organizations as a whole to (or even from) GHE does not send emails. To be clear that's still bad, especially given how the user could only know of this move if they were logged in and looking for one tiny bit of text in the repo homepage, but it's a non-malicious explanation.
If that's true and GitHub doesn't send mails for this particular thing, even it sends mails for more or less anything else if you don't disable it, paired with the fact that such a change is almost invisible if you don't know what to look for, makes it even more suspicious.
If there where changes post MS acquisition of GH to this parts this would look like planed long hand.
I'm curious about this too. I was told (by someone at GitHub) that the features I used to do the move are brand new and were not expected to be used the way I did. It is very possible pieces are missing in the audit trail GitHub creates.
Meh. I might be more interested if I actually had a GitHub Enterprise myself.
