I triggered a rebuild on my site because I noticed an old post still there that had been removed. The rebuild worked like a charm, but now the Github backup is creating a new commit for every individual file. I don’t feel like this is an expected behavior. I’m up to 250 emails letting me know my github pages workflow has started and been canceled as well. Also have a few hundred new commits here (and counting).
Sadly this is common. Micro.blog uses the GitHub API instead of directly using git, and it is very verbose when it’s translated into actual git commands. I think you will have to disable the workflow or disable the Micro.blog backup for now to avoid the chatter.
I want to redesign how GitHub backups work so that it can push all the changes once a week as a single commit.
