The default author information is set on your profile page (drop down in upper right).  See the "Git Defaults" section at the bottom. However I think that default setting only applies when you first clone a repository. To set the user information on an existing repository, go to the Repositories page, click the repository you are working on, and set the "user.name" and "user.email" properties in the Repository Configuration slide-out panel that appears.

We disabled committing with blank author information, but I'm not sure if that change is on orionhub.org yet.

I'm trying a version that has this 'disabling commits' and I suggest you add a "Set the default commiter" link just below the "Use the default commiter" link. Otherwise this feature will be extremely annoying since it forces you to enter 4 text values for every commit until you complain and someone explains how to set the defaults.

Or just offer "Set as defaults" after the first time the user sets the fields.

[orion-dev] Anonymous commits





It seems as if the git commits default to no author unless I use the
git-status commit UI to set my email address manually on every commit.
Is there a workaround?
