I just pushed my latest commit in github and once Vercel had pushed this to the deployment I noticed that the user credited with this latest push was a github account I did not recognise.
Where it says “Created Xmin ago by _____”, that user is foreign to me, aside from the fact that they share the same first name as me.
I have checked in GitHub, and they credit me with the latest commit. I have done a security sweep on both GitHub and Vercel, but can’t find any other user appearing anywhere. I am the only user to have created any commits.
I am wondering if this is just some UI bug, or this user has somehow accessed my repo, I’m not totally sure how to identify this.
It’s possible that your local Git configuration might be set up with incorrect user information. This can happen if you’ve recently changed computers or if someone else has used your machine.
Someone had a similar issue in the past, they fixed it by running the following:
