git change author

Change git commit author before pushing to remote repository.

git config user.name "username"
git config user.email "<username@email.com>"

This changes user name and email for current git repo.

git rebase -r --root --exec "git commit --amend --no-edit --reset-author"

This will reset author for all commits. Commit date & time are also changed to current date time.

replace --root with specific commit id for changing author from that commit onwards.
