Unfortunately it's been written in stone at this point. There is basically no way to modify history for a widely-distributed project like this (amending that commit would cause all sorts of conflicts for everybody who has a copy of the current git repository). The best we can do is probably add a note to the AUTHORS file or something... On Tue, Sep 2, 2014 at 12:51 PM, Juan Jose Martin Carrascosa <juanjo () rti com> wrote:
Hi all, My change has been accepted and merged to master, and I wonder if it would be possible to change the author that appears in "git log". Currently it shows Juanjo, and since everyone is showing their last name, it would be great to show "Juanjo Martin". How can I change that? I have seen that doing: git commit --amend --author="Juanjo Martin <juanjo () rti com>" I can do that, but that change must be accepted too, right? Thanks, Juanjo Martin ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
