Staticman Invitation is Case Sensitive

Wed, 19 Dec 2018 16:08:19 +0100

HTML and URL links are case insensitive. For example, GOOGLE.COM and google.com give the same address. As a result, after creating my fork of Beautiful Jekyll, I invited @staticmanlab to join my GitHub repo by firing the URL

https://staticman3.herokuapp.com/v3/connect/github/vincenttam/beautiful-jekyll

but I got

Failed Staticman invitation

The case for GitHub user name doens't match

Successful Staticman invitation

The case for GitHub user name match
