ankenyr··on Show HN: Documind – Open-source AI tool to turn documents into structured data
It would be better to attribute. You can still do this by fixing the git commit history and doing a force push. It would do a lot to make people feel better.

Your initial commit makes it look like you wrote all the code. https://github.com/DocumindHQ/documind/commit/d91121739df038... This is because you copied and uploaded the code instead of forking. You could do a lot by restoring attribution. Your history would look the same as https://github.com/getomni-ai/zerox/commits/main/ and diverge from where you forked.

People are getting upset because this is not a nice thing to do. Attribution is significant. No one would care if you replaced all the names with the new ones in a fork because they would see commits that do that.
