No. Past projects are typically not solo projects, so it's hard to establish who did what. We're hiring a developer for what he can do, not for what other people in his team did.

That's why I give references, they can comment/confirm what I did. If they're bad (but professional) references, they'll just confirm that I worked with them.
Also, I wasn't clear, but I meant personal projects (with commit records) as a separate consideration from employment.
