Git commits linked to wrong user on Github, correct in git log output -


i have been using git months now. working on own, working on repository of .html , .txt files little (terrible) python. coding skills average @ best, , have been using linux & unix command line 2 years @ basic level.

while visiting parents in uk, installed git on mac mini continue working on repository. set second repo different purpose , used git config in repo set local values user.email user.name etc. set second github account using different email address , pushed once.

since then, every time push 1st git repository on own computer, commits listed being second user set on mac, though never pushed there own computers. output of git log on local repo has author ought "author: pocketapocketa ", github has "christopher-rozruch". (in fact, looking on commit history, "christopher-rozruch" commits pre-date use of mac mini , setting of christopher-rozruch identity in form week or so.)

i have searched problem found issues involving changed config files, multiple accounts on same computer etc. github's own on topic discusses conflicts involving same e-mail address associated different accounts, not case here.

i have found script retrospectively change git history if decide (nobody else working on project), understand why has happened.

i have pushed primary repo in question 2 computers in time: 1 running on macbook, , 1 on debian 8. git version on debian have pushed 2.1.4. others should similar. problem has been same on each.

can help?

github associates commits github users email used in commit, see here.

looking @ repository's history, see have 2 different commit emails being used:

author: pocketapocketa <pocketapocketa@yahoo.com> 

this 1 seems associated christopher-rozruch user.

author: pocketapocketa <pocketapocketaqueep@yahoo.com> 

this 1 seems associated pocketapocketa user.

check local settings, , sure have appropriate email set. additionally, if own both of these accounts, can unlink email 1 , assign other if want (this clear github history well).
