RE: git-svn authors file and SVN users with ‘=’ in the username

2014-07-29 Thread David Braden
Yeah, the --authors-prog does work.  Is there a way to save the configuration 
though so you don't have to add it everytime time you rebase or dcommit?

Thanks

David

I have not tried it, but I suspect --authors-prog might work, as it passes the 
name as an argument to the program.

I think that git-svn's config reader uses the command-line options as a
template, and automatically reads --authors-prog from
svn.authorsprog. I didn't test it, though.
