this is just my default user name (and I didn't setup an hg specific one on my local machine). Is my warmup-phase already over? Otherwise I would change the name to "sternagel" (or something similar). (I guess the old changesets will stick with the awkward name?)

Published changesets are immutable. There is a separate file for user aliases http://isabelle.in.tum.de/repos/isabelle/file/cd3d987e8e79/Admin/user-aliases that is used by some tools that work with the names, notably churn.


BTW, the fine README_REPOSITORY contains a lot of distilled information from several years of experience. It is a bit long, but most of it is relevant. Concerning user names it says:

  There is also $HOME/.hgrc for per-user Mercurial configuration.  The
  initial configuration requires at least an entry to identify yourself
  as follows:

    [ui]
    username = XXX

  Isabelle contributors are free to choose either a short "login name"
  (for accounts at TU Munich) or a "full name" -- with or without mail
  address.  It is important to stick to this choice once and for all.
  The machine default that Mercurial produces for unspecified
  [ui]username is not appropriate.

On AFP I've also seen a machine default for "fetch" merges. This is the canonical configuration for it:

  [extensions]
  hgext.fetch =

  [defaults]
  fetch = -m "merged"

I won't argue about the exact spelling of the "merged", but it should not be the machine generated thing.
