! [remote rejected] master -> master (push declined due to email privacy restrictions)
error: failed to push some refs to '[email protected]:gengwg/xxxxx.git'
The steps I took to fix (thanks for the advice on this thread) were roughly as follows:
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
git rebase -i
git commit --amend --reset-author
git rebase --continue
git push
I found rebase -i allowed be to edit the commit message but retained the previous (private) email address in the log.
The commit --amend --reset-author seemed to be the easiest way to replace the offending email address.
