Cleaning Your Git History: Safely Removing Sensitive Data
**WARNING**: git-filter-branch has a glut of gotchas generating mangled history rewrites. Hit Ctrl-C before proceeding to abort, then use an alternative filtering tool such as 'git filter-repo' (https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo/) instead. See the filter-branch manual page for more details; to squelch this warning, set FILTER_BRANCH_SQUELCH_WARNING=1. Proceeding with filter-branch...

(RE not sharing inputs) PSA: "deleting" and committing to git doesn't actually remove it
Yup you need https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo Take a look at https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo/blob/main/INSTALL.md for instructions

How I teach Git
git filter-repo: a third-party command actually, as a replacement to Git's own filter-branch, that allows rewriting the whole history of a repository to remove a mistakenly added file, or help extract part of the repository to another.

Merging old repos into a monolithic git repo archive
I needed to archive some old repositories into a monorepo and of course I gave myself the requirement of maintaining git history, in some way. I tried a couple of solutions but it wasn't until I stumbled upon the git-filter-repo project at https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo and another article which I've since lost (which was badly documented anyway) that I was able to figure out how to do this.

Mass edit of .git/objects
Git objects are not designed to be changed, they are immutable blobs. This is not a problem if you are making a reader, but is a problem when you want to change things, tools like old git-filter-branch or the newer filter repo abstract all reference updating away for you

Question about Git LFS
Make sure your gitignore is setup right (GitHub has a repo of good defaults). If you messed that up, you could rewrite git history to remove the big stuff. Use git-filter-repo. Not sure how that works for LFS.

Large initial push.
I personally prefer git-bfg ( https://rtyley.github.io/bfg-repo-cleaner/ ) ... though git-filter-repo ( https://github.com/newren/git-filter-repo ) is quite popular. The difference for me was that git-bfg is JVM based and my work machine has Java on it while git-filter-repo is python based... and my work machine is without python.
- Is there a way to scrub certain info from a repo's history? I wanna make a repo public, but at one point I stored my API client credentials in the code. Presumably that makes it technically unsafe to ever share that repo. What to do?

Every time I try to learn to learn programming, I get stuck at the stage of installs/dependencies. I'm not sure how to understand these concepts at high level (bash, xcode, homebrew, pip, etc.) or where to actually start learning.
And the reply was "command not found". Researching the error, I found that I need to "Add Homebrew to your PATH in ~/.zprofile:"

Entitlement in Open Source
His fictional story reminds me of the Homebrew 2.7 debacle: https://github.com/Homebrew/discussions/discussions/340
TL;DR: They deprecated "brew cask install" in version 2.6, then removed it in version 2.7. Sounds fine, right? Except version 2.6 was released on December 1st, and 2.7 was released 20 days later on December 21st, breaking everyone's scripts just before the holidays.
I agree with the overall premise, but there's a balance to be had somewhere. When millions of developers use your tools, you do have to be a little more careful when you make breaking changes.
I think Linus has a point here with his "don't break userspace" rule.
