Description

(title is poor, feel free to change it).

I took the following steps: - dropped a non bare git repository in my kalithea/repositories directory - ran the scan and update tool to populate kallithea - noticed i had committed as root, so ran an update over all records to set myself as committer - ran the scan and update tool to populate kallithea

The repository now contains both sets of commits.

e27581f0f2c4    Moved to 'stacked pills' for the human sitemap  2 days and 15 hours ago root    

I'm unsure what the appropriate fix is here (other than 'dont do that') since the revision has changed and I assume that is what kallithea is tracking. Is it possible to fix? if not I'll add it to my notes and move on.

thanks!

That sounds like a git usage issue, not related to Kallithea.

is there a way to request kallithea forget the contents of the repository so it can import them anew?

Kallithea doesn't remember any repo hisotry. It just shows what is in the git repository.

I'm not sure what or when, but this is working as expected now. Its possible the records were due to being a non bare repository, due to kallithea needing a restart (?), rescan failing, ... I don't know. Whatever the case during the last week this repository is now behaving itself.
