Hi Steve, You could try a filter branch command :
git filter-branch --commit-filter ' if [ "$GIT_COMMITTER_NAME" = "<Old Name>" ]; then GIT_COMMITTER_NAME="<New Name>"; GIT_AUTHOR_NAME="<New Name>"; GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL="<New Email>"; GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL="<New Email>"; git commit-tree "$@"; else git commit-tree "$@"; fi' HEAD This rewrite history.
