When you have a window that is a system dialog, or alert, type of window, and you do not know which application it belongs to, you can try using code such as the following example AppleScript code to determine the name of the application to which it belongs:

tell application "System Events" to ¬
	get name of every application process ¬
		whose role description of window 1 is "system dialog"

Or:

tell application "System Events" to ¬

Thanx, that helped me a lot while I was migrating from BitBucket to AWS CodeCommit. Some helpful hints:

commit & push everything

remove hooks git lfs uninstall

remove lfs stuff from .gitattributes

list lfs files using git lfs ls-files | sed -r 's/^.{13}//' > files.txt

run git rm --cached for each file while read line; do git rm --cached "$line"; done < files.txt

This gist lets you keep IPython notebooks in git repositories. It tells git to ignore prompt numbers and program outputs when checking that a file has changed.

To use the script, follow the instructions given in the script's docstring.

The procedure outlined here is inspired by this answer on Stack Overflow.
