How do I change the default author and committer in the Eclipse Git plugin?


eclipse git eclipse-plugin egit author

  1. Click Window > Preferences > Team > Git > Configuration

  2. Click Add Entry and enter the key value pairs:

    • Key: user.name

    • Value: YourUsernameHere

      And

    • Key: user.email
    • Value: YourEmailHere

eclipse git eclipse-plugin egit author

Each developer should perform:

git config --global user.name "<name of user>"git config --global user.email "<email of user>"

If you want to change the author of an existing commit, look here

eclipse git eclipse-plugin egit author

EGit should ask you the first time you commit something. But you can always change it later on, see here: http://wiki.eclipse.org/EGit/User_Guide#Identifying_yourself
