From what I’ve read from his own writings he has faults, but he certainly moved the world forwards more than most people that have existed.
Just think - every software engineer’s resume worth anything mentions Linux and Git. Pretty incredible.

Should I mention those? I've always viewed that in the same vein as bragging about wpm in MS Word or something --- nearly everyone applying is good enough, and the rest can learn, so why waste precious page space on that over other more important information?
Also, not everyone knows git, or Linux.
If you're applying for a job that says you need experience with word, the put word on there
This is noise on a resume, in my opinion. I'm going to be assuming familiarity with these in most circumstances.
I recognize that different markets have different tolerance for nonsense on resumes, though: I've never heard of anyone in Europe adding extra-curriculars and things like "Eagle Scout" (or analogs of it) on resumes, and it'd be almost embarrassing interviewing someone who did.
