Subject: Re-creating a repository

I recently created a repo called Calc3DSolids. After pushing the first commit, I realized that I forgot to change the user.name and user.email variables, and the commiter was spicified as the test account (on my PC) I was logged in under. I tried to do 'git rebase -i HEAD~1', but because I only had one commit, I couldn't delete it.

I decided to re-create the repo and just start over (paying careful attention to the variables this time). The repo was deleted successfully, but now I can't create it again. I get the message 'Name is already taken'. I checked just to make sure that nobody started a project in that time, and it looks like there is no such project.

Can I create a repo with the same name, or do I have to wait a while, or what?

    You should be able to use the name now.
