# This removes obvious references to the author from a given git repo.
# This isn't foolproof - you'll have to trust that interviewers won't go digging.

# re-write the branch so that the author email, name, and committer are replaced with the candidate’s reference.
# if there are any branches other than master, you'll need to run that command on those separately.

# remove any remotes - check what they are called and replace `origin` if necessary
