Delete your branches and rebranch this project

Open gavanw opened this issue 8 years ago • 2 comments

I apologize for this, but if you have forked this project you should delete your branch and fork the project again. We wiped the commit history to get rid of bloated history and large files. Better this is done early on! (Also, I know little more than the absolute basics of github, so I am sure there is probably a better place to announce this, rather than open an issue? Also, I added in the two pull requests but forgot to take down the names (one person fixed absolute file paths and another added stuff for cmake). Can I get those names to credit them?

Hi @gavanw, I added the stuff for CMake. A good way to ping specific people on GitHub is to use an @ mention in an issue or PR like I just did at the beginning of this comment. By default this will send off an email to them.

Were you thinking of adding an AUTHORS file to the repo? If so, then I 'd like to make another PR to add my own name to it if possible, since my other commits were wiped out in the cleanup. In any case I went ahead and deleted my fork.

Thanks @halfspiral, I will add you - also, it appears my last method did not actually wipe the history properly, I will have to try another method.
