Hello GitHub Community,

I am a computer science student and I use GitHub to maintain my LeetCode practice repository.

I use the LeetHub V2 browser extension to automatically upload my accepted LeetCode solutions to GitHub. I noticed that one accepted solution sometimes creates around 4–5 commits in my repository. On some days, I may solve 10–20 LeetCode problems, so the total number of commits can become relatively high.

I would like to ask whether using LeetHub V2 in this normal manner is acceptable under GitHub's policies. I am only uploading my own accepted LeetCode solutions and using GitHub as a personal learning repository. I am not trying to spam GitHub, abuse the API, or perform excessive automation.

Could someone please clarify the following?

1. Is it okay to continue using LeetHub V2 to upload my own LeetCode solutions?
2. Is it normal for one uploaded solution to generate multiple commits?
3. Could this type of commit activity or use of this extension ever put my GitHub account at risk, assuming I am using it only for my own coding practice?

I appreciate any guidance from the GitHub team or experienced community members.

Thank you!
