However, if I apply your patch through "git am", the author of the
commit will be:
Ezhilarasan <[email protected]>
instead of
Ravula AdhityaX Siddartha <[email protected]>
Because of this issue, the maintainer has to manually fix this field
when accepting your patch. Worse, if he doesn't catch this, that's
harder to fix afterwards.
You should be able to fix this by running:
git config --global sendemail.from "[email protected]"
This should add a "From" field to the sent patch which "git am" should
be able to match with your name.
At least this worked for me. See
https://www.openembedded.org/wiki/How_to_submit_a_patch_to_OpenEmbedded#Sending_using_git-send-email
Could you try to send an update (don't hesitate to send a private one to
me first)?
Thanks in advance
Michael.
