GitHub – How to Undo ‘Close Issue’ Action

github

On GitHub, I closed an issue by error. Where "by error" means that I closed it because I pressed the wrong button and not because I though that the issue was fixed.

I know it is possible to reopen the issue but I would like to undo the close command in such a way that it is removed from the history. Is it possible?

This is not possible.

The Close and Re-open status of an issue will just remain part of its history.

Accidents happen. So do reviews which necessitate reopening an issue. Do not worry about it. It happens.

LinkedIn announced that they shut down the GitHub application, as of 26 November 2012. Now, LinkedIn only offers this, for sharing from Github:

You still have the option to share your code from GitHub on LinkedIn by sharing links on your homepage or in groups.

In other words, you can share links from Github the same way that you share links from anywhere else online. That is just the same old, manual feature as in the past.

CSS file from GitHub pages sent as text/plain, needs to be text/css

This is by design as you should not be serving or linking to raw files in this manner.

It could also be seen as abuse of their services as linking to the raw file is using GitHub as a content delivery network (CDN).

Instead, you need to make use of the GitHub Pages feature and link to the file from there. Which, when you build your pages will be along the lines of:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://repo-owner.github.com/repo/css/style.css">

In your case, it would be here:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://dublintech.github.com/JavaScript_Examples/jsquiz/css/jquiz.css">

And when it is referenced from the correct location, it will be served as text/css as expected/wanted.
