commit --amend --author error

I got APGL licensed code from someone else and want to post it on my github (without taking credit for the work)

tried git commit --amend --author="Author name, www.website.com" but got an error message which said something like "original author not found" Can it be that the --amen --author only work if the author is on github himself?
