Code with me: other user now stuck in my commit panel
Answered
I tried using “code with me” with a co-worker (named Joe). That was interesting and informative. I'm now back to normal working, but my “Commit” panel seems to be polluted with Joe's name. The commit panel now shows “Changes” with files listed that I've changed, followed by “Changes by Joe” followed by nothing. Joe's changes were temporary and I'll probably never have Joe touching my code again. But I'm forever stuck (after closing/starting IntellliJ).
Can I clear out Joe's name from my history?

Hi,
Are these local changes? Can you please share a screenshot? You should be able to shelve/stash them.
There are no changes from the other user, so there is nothing to stash. I was “test driving” the code-with-me feature with Joe (the guinea pig) to see if I would propose using it on my larger team. (I won't be, but that's a different topic.) But now Joe's ID is stuck in my commit panel (with no commits, just a blank line for Joe). I'd like to purge that Joe is part of this team.
I've attached a screen shot. My changes (build.gradle, in this case) show up normally in the first section of the commit panel. Joe's ID (starting with 68…) shows up next with no changes (and never will have changes).
Ah, I get it. This is just a regular changelist created one session is made. You may right-click on it and remove it easily:
Ah, awesome. Thank you so much. I've not used any form of “changelist” and not yet clear on what that is. But I'll research and learn. Thank you again; I appreciate your help.
