Hello, I have setup a git repo which is protected with user authentication set by apache it self. <Location /git> AuthType Basic # Message to give to the committer AuthName "Write access requires a password" # File listing users with write (commit) access AuthUserFile /home/git/PASSWD Require valid-user </Location> Now users are required to use their authentication as per /home/git/PASSWD file ( generated by htpasswd) . How can I force git to use the username as define at /home/git/PASSWD as the author name for git commit ?
