-#+title: Changing Git Authors
-#+date: 2021-05-30
-#+description: A guide to change Git author names and emails in old commits.
-#+filetags: :dev:
-
-* Changing Git Author/Email Based on Previously Committed Email
-Here's the dilemma: You've been committing changes to your git
-repository with an incorrect name or email (or multiple repositories),
-and now you want to fix it. Luckily, there's a semi-reliable way to fix
-that. While I have never experienced issues with this method, some
-people have warned that it can mess with historical hashes and integrity
-of commits, so use this method only if you're okay accepting that risk.
-
-Okay, let's create the bash script:
-
-#+begin_src sh
-nano change_git_authors.sh
-#+end_src
-
-The following information can be pasted directly into your bash script.
-The only changes you need to make are to the following variables:
-
-- =OLD_EMAIL=
-- =CORRECT_NAME=
-- =CORRECT_EMAIL=
-
-#+begin_src sh
-#!/bin/sh
-
-# List all sub-directories in the current directory
-for dir in */
-do
-    # Remove the trailing "/"
-    dir=${dir%*/}
-    # Enter sub-directory
-    cd $dir
-
-    git filter-branch --env-filter '
-
-    OLD_EMAIL="old@example.com"
-    CORRECT_NAME="your-new-name"
-    CORRECT_EMAIL="new@example.com"
-
-    if [ "$GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL" = "$OLD_EMAIL" ]
-    then
-        export GIT_COMMITTER_NAME="$CORRECT_NAME"
-        export GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL="$CORRECT_EMAIL"
-    fi
-    if [ "$GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL" = "$OLD_EMAIL" ]
-    then
-        export GIT_AUTHOR_NAME="$CORRECT_NAME"
-        export GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL="$CORRECT_EMAIL"
-    fi
-    ' --tag-name-filter cat -- --branches --tags
-
-    git push --force --tags origin 'refs/heads/*'
-
-    cd ..
-done
-#+end_src
-
-Finally, save the bash script and make it executable.
-
-#+begin_src sh
-chmod a+x change_git_authors.sh
-#+end_src
-
-Now you can run the script and should see the process begin.
-
-#+begin_src sh
-./change_git_authors.sh
-#+end_src
