Once it's pushed to a public git repo it's too late. This also happened last year, http://www.cygwin.com/ml/libc-ports/2010-02/msg00014.html Most people use `git am` which fills in the author field directly. Otherwise, use git commit --author=... or after the patch it committed but before it's pushed publicly, git commit --amend --author=...
