It doesn't. I don't know why people on HN think it does, but in real life, most people I've worked with ave empty GitHub accounts.

I've had an interviewer suggest to me that I open a Github account, to improve my chances of getting an offer. After the interview was already over and was already rejected. But I already had an active Github account, and nobody ever asked me in the interview if I had one. So I was confused by the suggestion.
