my private email is being used when I push changes to my github repo.

I use the desktop application for github to push my changes (https://desktop.github.com/) and it started appearing after that.

I tried deleting the the repo and then renamed the repo to the same name (it's important that the repo has the same name).

enter image description here

it shows my email even after I commit new changes to the file, pls help

  • Does this answer your question? [Git commit with no email](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7372970/git-commit-with-no-email) – Aposhian Feb 05 '21 at 07:15
  • git is designed to be used with an email. It is possible to commit with an empty email, but it is not standard practice. – Aposhian Feb 05 '21 at 07:17
  • I used the git `config --list command` and it shows my email as `user.email=`, yet when I push to update the files that have my email showing, it doesn't remove my email from appearing – noobyy Feb 05 '21 at 07:22
  • Try: `git config --global user.email '<>'` from the answer I linked to. – Aposhian Feb 05 '21 at 15:19
