I mistakenly used a previous email address for an automake contributor in
(what is currently) the last commit. Savannah rejects changing it since it is
"non-fast-forward". Can it be changed by you? I don't know much about git, but
I gather the sequence goes something like this:
git commit --amend --author="Kamila Szewczyk <[email protected]>"
--no-edit
git push origin master --force-with-lease
Help? Thanks.
