Rewrite history to fix @quicm's stupid email

Open hakusaro opened this issue 6 years ago • 12 comments

Thanks to @QuiCM's poor email management skills, this lovely user claimed his email and now half of our repo's commits and @mentions were rewritten to point to this other user.

This other user has a really ugly avatar, so I want to rewrite history to fix @QuiCM's stupid email address. Preferably after #1527 gets merged.

Update: also going to handle @bartico6's equally dumb problems with committing in this rewrite too.

An alternative solution is to tell said user that they should change their avatar to a really cute anime girl. That would actually improve the repository's contribution graph.

Update the history and pay me enough money to set mine to a kawaii weeb gril

Easier solution: rewrite history and change it to a sensible email that I control and then change my avatar to a cute anime girl. Much easier to ensure that someone doesn’t set their email to @noreply.github.com again.

Okay, @Pryaxis/tshock, if this is happening, please drop something here if you want history changed. Same privacy expunging rules apply as usual, but now is the time to chime in if you want history changed.

If this concerns Git History, a simple git soft reset, then using Co-Authored-By: and Committed-By: flags would work.

Also I'll be willing to shill a hundred bucks to set your avatar into Sagiri fwiw @QuiCM :^)

sr229 avatar Feb 04 '19 03:02 sr229

@sr229 can you elaborate on this? We could just change those tags for all past commits without rewriting history?

@hakusaro FWIW yes if I go with this StackOverflow Article

Also sorry for the one year latency :)

@sr229 is the $100 shill still on offer? ;)

Certainly not, go nag @hakusaro to give you 30% of his Patreon money @QuiCM :^)

I tried to get @QuiCM to setup github sponsors but he refuses. What a quack
