Like many programmers, I use Github for version control. However, my websites which I made with ASP.NET list as PowerShell repos when there's little to no PowerShell involved. I'm trying to fix this by adding 

*.rb linguist-language=CSharp

to the .gitattributes file but it isn't taking as it still lists as a PowerShell repo. How can I fix this?

Note: I also tried C# instead of CSharp. Still nothing

  • The repo you linked has 67.0% PowerShell according to GitHub's stats. – Harald Nordgren Feb 07 '16 at 04:25
  • (Answering the question of how to find statistics:) Go to the repo's main page and click the colored bar below the commits, branch,releases & contributor info. The one that says "Click for language details" when hovering. – Harald Nordgren Feb 07 '16 at 04:29
  • Ah I see what happened, Visual Studio made publishing scripts with PowerShell. So I can't change the language at all then? – Nick Gilbert Feb 07 '16 at 04:30
  • I don't know actually, see if someone else posts an answer. I only commented because you wrote "there's little to no PowerShell involved" which was blatantly untrue. =) – Harald Nordgren Feb 07 '16 at 04:32
  • Figured it out. *rb is ruby's file extension...I'm an idiot – Nick Gilbert Feb 07 '16 at 04:34

You can tell Linguist to ignore Powershell files:

*.ps1 linguist-vendored
