Is it possible to do?
If yes, could you please provide a curl example?
Unfollowing a user on GitHubClick a user image to display that user's profile. Click Unfollow under their profile image.
In the top right corner of GitHub.com, click your profile photo, then click Your organizations. Next to the organization, click Settings. In the sidebar, select Moderation, then click Blocked users. Under "Block a user", type the username of the user you'd like to block.
If your project is hosted on GitHub, you can view how many people land on your project and where they come from. From your project's page, click “Insights”, then “Traffic”. On this page, you can see: Total page views: Tells you how many times your project was viewed.
If someone you follow stars a public repository, GitHub may recommend the repository to you in the discovery view of your news feed. You can unfollow someone if you do not wish to see their public activity on GitHub. Click a user image to display that user's profile.
Manually: go to user profile - in the right corner there is Follow user and right next to it menu with Block user / Report user. By clicking on Block user, he was removed from my followers. Here is Github manual to do that. Could not find an api alternative.
You can follow people on GitHub to receive notifications about their activity and discover projects in their communities. When you follow people, you'll see their public activity in the activity view of your news feed.
Only "Block User". Manually: go to user profile - in the right corner there is Follow user and right next to it menu with Block user / Report user. By clicking on Block user, he was removed from my followers. Here is Github manual to do that.
Removing a follower on Github in fact is possible with this workaround:
Block the user who watches you, as described in the github help.
Then unblock him again.
After that he will not be blocked anymore and he will also no longer follow you.
Wrote to Github support:
Is there any way to delete followers? I know about "Block User" option but it's not exactly what I want. Github API methods are also suitable.
They answered:
No, this isn't currently possible.
So, there is no way for now. Only "Block User".
