Unfortunately, I found this to be working only on the first git svn clone. Later rebasing made the commits use the old username@uuid format. I am assuming the option is not being preserved in the Git repository metadata and it is only used on cloning/init. Is this the intended behavior? Many thanks. -- Mircea http://mircea.bardac.net
