they shouldn't have to do that. the commit log tells the manager who to go ask.

and since the developer did that to be a big swinging dick instead of bringing it up to the team in a meeting as a problem to address together the manager didn't trust them.

makes sense to people that have to manage other humans.

This is a massive assumption from the story that was provided. We don't know that they didn't discuss with the team and an explanation of "I added a log to errors that were already happening" shouldn't result in lack of trust from the manager.

Reactive managers like that are a big problem in the industry.
