# Fix Author

Fix the author on all commits between `main` and HEAD using the current git
config.

1. Read `user.name` and `user.email` from git config. Local config takes
   precedence over global config.
2. List all commits from `main..HEAD` with their authors.
3. Identify commits with a mismatched author.
4. If none are mismatched, tell the user and do nothing.
5. Otherwise, use `git rebase main --exec 'git commit --amend --author="Name <email>" --no-edit'` to fix the author on all commits.
6. Report which commits were updated.
