Hi Dave,
I noticed something odd while checking the recent
commits of mine in kernel.org tree made it via netdev.
Don't know if its patchwork tool doing this.
Usual author line in my git objects :
Author: Santosh Shilimkar <emaid-id>
But the commits going via your tree seems to be like below..
Author: email-id <email-id>
Few more examples of the commits end of the email. Can this
be fixed for future commits ? The git objects you pulled from
my tree directly have right author format where as ones which
are picked from patchworks seems to be odd.
Patchwork does store this info somehow and re-use it, quite possibly
from the very first patch you ever sent. I think this bug was *just*
fixed in patchwork, but it'll probably be a while until that fix lands.
However, you can go and create a patchwork account with the real name,
associate it with all the email addresses you use and then I think
it'll pick it up. Not entirely sure though, you'll have to test it.
I will try that. Thanks for the tip.
Reagrds,
Santosh
