Is there anything stopping someone from creating a new youtube-dl repo on GitHub with the README examples in question removed?
On that note... how do you actually remove copyrighted content from a git repo? Even if you fixed the problem on the HEAD of the master branch, it would still exist in the version history.
- Drdrdrq 6y agoIt can be done, the search keywords are "git rewrite history".
- alias_neo 6y agoGit history, just like human history, can be rewritten, if you only know how. (It gets a bit harder of it's cryptographically signed) EDIT: To whomever is downvoting, I'm not making a remark about some specific event, is a tongue in cheek poke at "history is written by the Victor". Chill.
