Remove parent message embed after GitBot's enhanced commit info is sent #452

Open bagusnl opened 2 days ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Having both Discord's embed and GitBot's own commit/code info in the chat box can take a lot of space, most of time it's the whole window filled with those two. image image

Describe the solution you'd like Remove any embeds from parent message after GitBot successfully sent enhanced commit/code info to the chat.

Describe alternatives you've considered Manually removing the embed from parent message, which is quite tedious.

Additional context None

Hi! I know this issue and remember thinking about it back when this feature was just being added, but sadly, there is not really an alternative. Discord handles embeds by allowing you to remove them through the edit message endpoint, and sadly, that is not available on messages that are not yours — not your message, not yours to edit — thus the bot can't touch a user's message. The only possible alternative would be deleting the original message afterward which, in my eyes, is not too great across the board.
