When looking at a commit in GitHub, I want to see the value of the "Author" field in the commit. As far as I can tell, GitHub will only show me the GitHub username. Too see the author field, I need to fetch the commit and look at it locally, which is kind of annoying.
For instance, see this link:
https://github.com/connamara/quickfixn/commit/b23261bdcda2d62fa8738f88bff8b6819df1f93a
You can see my GitHub username "gbirchmeier", but I want to see the values that I configured via user.name
and user.email
when I committed.
