Select Topic AreaBug BodyFor a while one of my github actions was creating commits and setting me as author. I have now disabled that and have edited all commits where I was the author and the bot was the committer and made the bot the sole committer and author. I have done this about a month ago, so any cache should've been updated by now. |

Hi Dear @Apacelus Clear local git cache: Sometimes, Git may cache information about your commits locally. To ensure that you're seeing the updated information, clear the local git cache on your machine. You can do this by running the following command in your terminal: git rm --cached -r . This will clear the cache and force Git to fetch the latest commit information from the remote repository. Force push to update the remote repository: After clearing the local git cache, you can force push your local repository to update the remote repository with the corrected commit information. Before doing this, make sure you have a backup of your repository or relevant branches, just in case. To force push, use the following command: git push -f origin <branch-name> Replace with the name of the branch you want to update. Verify the updated commits on GitHub: After force pushing, visit your repository on GitHub and check if the commits have been updated with the correct bot as the sole committer and author. It may take a few minutes for the changes to be reflected on the website. If the above steps don't resolve the issue, it's possible that there might be another configuration or caching issue specific to GitHub. In that case, you should reach out to GitHub support for further assistance. They will be able to investigate the issue and provide guidance on how to fix it. |
