Yahh, remember chasing Github support regarding this last year and they reverted back that they are aware of this and have an internal jira for this but can not comment upon how much time it would take. (As of now 1 year & counting)
As far as I remember this is with squash & commit only. If you do say a rebase & merge. The commit email id is preserved. But other options we have blocked. I think most of the projects are using squash & merge and many people won’t be ok to use CLI rather than UI So, I don’t think we have an ALT here. Just in case you want to use the CLI & still make the PR marked as merged, A dirty way to do this is: Pull the changes to your local. Rebase & Squash all commits, in the commit message in the end put actual the PR number, eg. #1234, force push to the PR, that is the contributors fork, this will update his PR and then merge the Branch to trunk in your local and push. It marks the PR as merged, at least last year it did when I tried. :-) -Ayush > On 20-Oct-2021, at 3:27 AM, Szilárd Németh <snem...@apache.org> wrote: > > Hi, > > I noticed something strange in our commits, in particular the committer > field is not reflecting the user who committed the commit. > > *1.
