The first commit on github is a 77k lines commit that appears to be a migration of the project from svn to git. So you're looking only at later commit history.

The original project lived here: https://sourceforge.net/p/guake-gnome-vte/code/commit_browse...

He explained that and linked to that in his his issue though.

Edit: Linking to the full commit history instead.

My bad! Indeed, he does seem to be the original Author. Thanks for pointing me to the correct spot! I'm not sure how I missed that.
