Multiple committer names?
I was wondering if it's possible to account for commits from SCM using multiple commit names. I tried using a simple comma delimiter in the Committer names entry under my Profile, but that didn't seem to work.

Hey Marshall,
Are you using Git/GitHub?

Yup, Github.

Just so I know I'm reading this right: You commit to one or more repositories that update the same Lighthouse project, with multiple committer names?

In this case I'm simply referring to having multiple names in one git repository. For instance, some of my commits will show up with the name "marshall", but on my second box I accidentally set my user.name to "Marshall Culpepper". I'd like to be able to take ownership of commits from both names (though i realize they should be the same if possible). So in my repository committer name box I tried:
marshall,Marshall Culpepper
.. and unfortunately that didn't seem to work

This seems like an edge case. Is this a configuration you're going to be rocking for awhile, or can I just manually convert the commits with the legacy name to your current lighthouse user?

I have 3 or 4 different configurations that I commit from, sometimes it's hard to remember if all the user.names are setup correctly, but in general I would like to make sure they're always the same :). It would be great if you could manually configure those messages though! What info do you need from me?

I just need to know all of the legacy names that you're using.

Just these:

I took care of this... sorry it slipped through my radar. Are your new commits being set to the correct user now?
