Thanks, I was able to use git-filter-branch to accomplish what I wanted. I should have mentioned in the original email that it is not a widely distributed repo, so I'm not too worried about breaking things at this point. I guess for a larger project it might be a problem, so I probably just wouldn't do it. > BUT!

One thing that's a bit odd for me is that I use a different email address for this particular project.. Conveniently I'm able to use git-config to set an email address locally for this repo, however I have to remember to do this every time I clone it somewhere. Not a problem, necessarily, but perhaps just a matter of training myself. For example, I have a clone of this repo on a Linux, Windows, and OS X machine, and also another clone for each on my laptop.. git is actually turning out to be great for doing all this swapping between machines, but it does take a little training to remember to set the configuration, since there's no central repo to ask me for my username and password before I can commit. cheers, Steve - To unsubscribe from this list: 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
