Infuriating GitHub users that mass-spam GitHub email addresses to promote their repo. How do I report this behavior to GitHub? I guess I could also report them for CANN Spam violations.
You must log in or register to comment.
if this is an address publicly visible from commits, anyone can do it
set a noreply address for future commits
git config --global user.email "username@users.noreply.github.com"Why do you think this is from GitHub and not someone who is emailing from a list?
Also click the to link to see where it might be from, then the 3 dots top right and click show original. If the from and to are real and the headers look about right then fine, if the headers don’t have GitHub in them it’s pure spam
Knowhere? I assume that is the first name ChatGPT recommended.
I have never once had this happen? Are you sure it’s related to Github?
It has an unsubscribe link at the bottom and zero GitHub branding. This is just some enterprising AI douche scraping emails from commit authorship and adding them to a mailing list.
