It's not about the name thing. It's about the usage of parts of the licensed material without following the license. For example, commit messages, the subtitle, etc.
Theoretically:
* tip4commit violates the license the code is published under (for example if it has a NonCommercial clause).
* The original author is now the only one who has copyright.
* tip4commit is using safe harbor protections (a user chooses to create a page for a project).
* DMCA is now applicable to protect the copyright of the original author.
