I recently switched over to using git and followed these instructions to convert my SVN repository. However, I failed to follow the instructions to make the authors file, and I have already committed my converted repository and have been working on it, adding further commits.
My old SVN repo is now outdated, but I would like to do get the author names to match up now, I already created the authors file. How can I do so without messing up my most recent commit history?
You can try this if you want to rewrite your local git history, maybe you can alter it to get the authors from your author file instead of from the script.
