Language shows up in statistics despite omitting it in ReadMe #2896
-
I tried variations for the portion of the readme which displays language usage statistics, and no matter the approach, when I hide language and select C#, it still shows C# on my user homepage. Usually, without hiding a language, C# shows as 95% usage, but when omitting C#, it cuts usage by half but not entirely somehow. When using a third-party website to determine usage, C# is displayed at a usage rate of only 6.5%. I even deleted the entire repo for CSE155 and double-checked to make sure C# is not used elsewhere, and when returning to my profile home page it still shows C# at majority usage. Gitattributes special-vendored-path/* linguist-vendored also does nothing when placed within the desired repo. This is my first time editing my username readme for my homepage so I am a bit of a novice, but I am hoping to get some pointers as to what is going wrong. |
