Hi,

I’m planning to use git filter-repo to rewrite my repository’s history to remove some large files that were mistakenly committed. Will this cause issues for users relying on ComfyUI-Manager to clone or update the repository?

Specifically:

-Does ComfyUI-Manager handle rewritten histories?
-If not, is there a way to force a fresh clone for users?

I’d appreciate any advice on ensuring a smooth transition for users.

Thanks!
Ryan

In fact, this issue occurs intermittently across several repositories, and in such cases, the user's custom node updates will be blocked.
Currently, there is no official response to this, and the only solution is to reinstall.

In ComfyUI-Manager, resetting the custom node history installed by users is risky, so automation to address this is not applied.

In the future, it may be necessary to provide an error message and a reinstall option for cases where updates fail due to this reason.
