    How... How do people end up committing their private SSH key!?

    cat id_rsa < /dev/null | git commit -am "y'all st00pid" (or something like that)

    @xewl git history though..

    However I think you might be able to go to that exact commit, change the key and --amend it to overwrite the history? Not sure....

    @incognito actually he should generate a new key and remove the old one from wherever he was using it, replacing with a new one. This one is already exposed anyway, so it's maybe pointless removing from the history.

    Make whoever committed that lose their job and change the keypair first. This behaviour is just ridiculous.
