Hi @BartTK , When you push with the correct username but with an incorrect email address, the commit isn't actually associated with any account as it doesn't exist, you may see your username with a blank profile picture, which basically means it's a non-existent account, so you don't have to worry about that.

Body
In my latest private repository, GitHub associated all my commits with a different GitHub account. When I look at
git log
locally on my PC, it show my username. However, it seems I made a copy/paste error in the anonimized email address from GitHub. Apparently I missed the first digit of the number in front of that address. I've fixed my email address for future commits.But what about the old commits?
First of all I find it odd that GitHub associates them with a completely different account. That other account cannot be using that incorrect email address as it does have my GitHub username in it. Bug?
Does this also mean that this other user can now see/access these commits? Collaborator settings of the specific private repository shows there are no collaborators with direct access.
