Does GH reject commits if there is no change in code?

I am using octokitjs to commit to a repo. But sometimes files aren't committed. The code works fine. Does GitHub reject commits if there is no change?

@Nithur-M Hi there! Could you please share?:

• the code you’re using to create the commit (just the line that used Octokit should be fine!
• the response from the API that you get when the file isn’t committed (you can just use console.log)

That’ll help us to figure out what’s going wrong.

Hi, thanks for responding. I think GH automatically doesn't write the commits if there aren't any changes in the files. I intentionally changed the content and committed it again, it works fine.
