If I'm not mistaken, they are not talking about your GitHub username (or wherever you're hosing your repository). They are talking about the Git username that you set with git config. $ git config --list user.name=Robert Walker user.email=n...@example.com ... ... This information will show up in git log indicating the author of the changes at the time they were committed. It has nothing to do with authentication for accessing the Git repository. That, as you mentioned, is handled separately from :scm_username thorough something like ssh as you mentioned. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
