I'm not familiar with git-svn, but the $GIT_DIR/svn-authors file used by git-svnimport.perl and http://www.wingding.demon.nl/git-svnconvert.rb contains lines like: svn-author = Full Name <email@domain> And yes, you've got to enumerate the names you want transformed. Another option is to give no authors, but then the SVN author names will be used (with email 'unknown' or something). -- Rutger Nijlunsing ---------------------------------- eludias ed dse.nl never attribute to a conspiracy which can be explained by incompetence ---------------------------------------------------------------------- - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
