GitHub倉庫如何提供零貢獻者和明顯的提交？

Question

我注意到一個GitHub repository有零貢獻者與明顯的提交。這怎麼可能？

Answer 1

修訂者電子郵件沒有與任何GitHub的帳戶相關聯。通過拾取隨機提交，添加添加後綴.patch你可以看到這一點：

https://github.com/atomiks/reddit-user-analyser/commit/508b9f745dcfd9117367fa88e982bb739ecac616.patch

From 508b9f745dcfd9117367fa88e982bb739ecac616 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001

的na@gmail.com很可能不與任何GitHub的帳戶相關聯。

您可以創建以下步驟這樣的倉庫：

# Create the Git repo locally 
$ mkdir foo 
$ cd foo/ 
$ git init 
Initialized empty Git repository in /.../foo/.git/ 

# Create some files 
$ echo 'foo' > index.js 
$ ls 
index.js 

# Create the commit, but pass an invalid email address 
# or one you are sure that is not associated with *any* 
# GitHub account 
$ git add . -A 
$ git commit -m 'Initial' . --author 'foo <fooooooo_or_invalid_email_address_which_is_not_on_github@bar.com>' 
[master a34597b] Initial 
Author: foo <fooooooo_or_invalid_email_address_which_is_not_on_github@bar.com> 
Date: Wed May 31 13:51:19 2017 +0300 
1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) 
create mode 100644 index.js 

# Add the GitHub url 
$ git remote add origin git@github.com:IonicaBizau/tmp42.git 

# Push the repo 
$ git push --all 
Counting objects: 3, done. 
Writing objects: 100% (3/3), 271 bytes | 0 bytes/s, done. 
Total 3 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0) 
To github.com:IonicaBizau/tmp42.git 
* [new branch]  master -> master 

然後GitHub庫頁面上，你會看到：

點擊提交網址並加入.patch後綴（獲取原始信息）：
