Spent 2 hours or so screwing with GitHub trying to properly re-author a commit that was mis authored on my repo. Total pain entirely my own doing because I’m not good at github.

But having version control also just saved my butt when I was messing with config files and broke the Home Assistant UI.

So over all GitHub good? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Follow

@DelusionalAI Just for the reference for anyone who reads it and is interested:

1. git rebase -i COMMIT_ID^
2. choose "edit" in the commit you're interested in
3. git commit --amend --no-edit --author="Name Surname <email>"
4. git rebase --continue
5. git push --force-with-lease
6. ...
7. PROFIT

PS. It's "git", GitHub is irrelevant there ;)
