GitHub Cache Clearing - alok9shm - 07-27-2014
Hi there,
I'm new to GitHub, just a few days old. :Crazy:
I'm working on some Android Applications. @Legolas advised me to push a project to GitHub. I signed up, but could not figure out the usage too well.
The Problem:
I created a repository, on GitHub Windows Application, and added the Project Source, and committed the changes. Everything seemed fine. But then I realized, I pushed the wrong project to github. It was an incomplete version. So, I removed the repository, from Windows App, but it was still showing up on Github Website. So I deleted it again from the Website successfully. Now, I tried to add the correct project using Github on Windows [ Dropping the project folder into App] but it showed the old files, and the old repository again instead of the new one.
After many failed attempts, I logged out from the Github on Windows, and deleted my account on GitHub website. Then I created another account, and logged in to Github on Windows, added a new repository, but the old files are still showing up, even while using another account.
I googled, but nothing seems to help me out.
Is the cache giving troubles? Or my empty Brain?
Regards.

You have a Github Directory on Windows, remove the project from there and you may also have an option to remove them from the Github App. Then when you want to add a repository then create a repo and then directly paste the contents of the project to the repo folder and commit. Make sure you sync your repo.
