On deleting code in a single file, I agree with the other commenter about good commit messages (git add -p is your friend!).
For entirely deleted files, I use GitFlow, and as part of my release notes, I use a script that compares master to the release branch to get a list of added, modified, and deleted files, and the last known blob commit hash URL for those files, then include that in the change log and/or release notes.
Makes it really easy to find when a specific file was deleted, as finding removed files can be challenging in both CLI git and in Github if they are no longer in the codebase, or have been renamed.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
