Doing that shouldn't change the author, at least in my experience. I constantly 'git fetch' or 'git review -d <change>' to fetch a patch, update it, and push a new revision. When I do that, the author stays the same but it shows me as the "Committer".

I have seen the behavior Matt describes happen to other people though and I would guess it has something to do with the rebase. Though I feel like I've also rebased other people's changes and it didn't change the Author, it only changed the Committer to me.

I figured out the pattern when this happens to change the author.

1. git review -d
2. git rebase -i master
3. <merge conflict>
4. fix merge conflict
5. git add <files>
6. git commit
7. git rebase --continue

It's the merge conflict + git commit during the rebase that changes the author for me.
