Maybe I missed it but the article doesn't mention the even easier way to see this: the activity tab.

It has everything. Any force push to hide ugly prototype code is kept forever which annoys me. I wish we were able to remove stuff from there but the only way to do it is to email support it seems?

Here it is for the test repo mentioned

Where is that linked from? I've been using GitHub for years and never heard of this page.

Between "Readme" and "0 stars" on https://github.com/SharonBrizinov/test-oops-commit/

Looking at some of my projects, it's entirely empty, or only has a few items, so I suspect it was introduced "recently" and doesn't have data from before then.

Picking https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/activity?sort=ASC as a busy example, Activity page has no data prior to 7th March 2023. So it has existed for 2 of GitHub's 17 years of existence.

		Thank you. I think that section has consisted of links to READMEs and stuff for so long I just stopped paying attention to it.

Funny thing, we had a similar issue with one of our deployement in the past. It's similar to leaking accidently your password into bash history. Happens more than it should.

I guess it's possible to delete these forever as by deleting the entire repo and re uploading. As long as there are no forks.

		Before that it will have been ingested by at least Microsoft into AI and what not.
