* vc-next-action or vc-dir, optionally allows to change the user?

Hi 

Recently I have to commit (using hg,  but this should be irrelevant here)
changes as another user, so usually I tried 


(defun my-set-new-user ()
  "Set the user for the commit and ChangLog entries to new user."
  (interactive)
  (setq user-full-name "James Bond")
  (setq add-log-full-name "James Bond")
  (setq user-mail-address "007@mi6.co.uk")
  (setq add-log-mailing-address "007@mi6.co.uk")
  (message "Now changes are registered as JB"))

But it did not help.

Any idea how to change the user and email address for the  commit
message?

I can commit explicitly from the command line as a new user, but that is
a bit cumbersome.

Regards

Uwe Brauer

Try adding the "Author:" header at the top when writing the commit message.

Thanks that works, however if want to say commit three or 4 changes this way, it would be nice to have this a bit more automatised. 

I debugged vc-checkin and can see where it grabs the user name and address. 

Another approach would be to set the user variable locally for that repository to a different value. But this is not a lisp solution but one that depends on the underlying vc system

Hm...

I would suggest using 'M-p' to pre-fill the previous contents of the 
Log-Edit buffer when writing the subsequent ones.

It seems that 

(setq log-edit-setup-add-author t)

Is a bit helpful

This is cool, thanks I was not aware that I can use M-p actually to
insert an older message I thought this is mainly for displaying.

One last thing so:

When using 


(setq log-edit-setup-add-author t)

Then the log-edit-buffer looks like

Summary: 
Author: 

I find this a bit contra-intuitive and inconvenient. 

I think it should be 

Author: 
Summary: 

Not a big deal, but.....

(May this is a bug)?

Here is the culprit:

(defun log-edit-insert-message-template ()
  "Insert the default VC commit log template with Summary and Author."
  (interactive)
  (when (or (called-interactively-p 'interactive)
            (log-edit-empty-buffer-p))
    (insert "Summary: ")
    (when log-edit-setup-add-author
      (insert "\nAuthor: "))
    (insert "\n\n")
    (message-position-point)))

I think it should be the other way around I will try to bring this up on the devel list.

    1. Unbelievable as it  seems but  you still seem to support this war
       of aggression. However I will not discuss this issue with your here.

    2. We have freedom of expression, haven't we? If a you find it
       stressful to see that a war of aggression is condemned, that is
       your problem.

What a nonsense, I do not support ANY war. This is about Emacs Help
and there are people from many sides of world including our friends
Russian. 

Could you abstain of using this mailing list to support delivery of
weapons to any country? There are other mailing lists where you should
do that and where you can express your opinions.

Sure you have. Just that we wish to include Russian in this mailing
list, and Ukrainian, and not foster conflicts with this war mongering
signature of yours. Find better forums for that.

Please understand that we do not talk about Dmitry here, we talk about
nice behavior on a mailing list related to free software.

Free software is what unites all members of this mailing list, and
what brings new people to produce free software.

It is not relevant from where those people come from, which
nationality, and so on.

By promoting delivery of weapons Herr Uwe Brauer also promotes
continuance of further killing in Ukraine. That may be his choice, I
call it Labern in German, but that for his promotion he better finds
some other more appropriate forums. As that is world politics, and not
free software politics.

World politics may divide people on GNU mailing lists. 

Avoiding politics on GNU mailing list is a friendly way to
go. Promoting wars cannot be friendly as it is always either this or
against the other side. It is not inclusive.

Just a last comment, before, Eli, rightly might intervene. 

I have chosen a *signature* of my liking. I am pretty sure that you have
all the necessary software skills at your disposal to not display this
signature.

But instead, the one who is babbling (that is the translation of the
word labern you are using) in this mailing list, is you.

If you were Russian I could see a point and would try to explain, but
you are not even Russian,

But worse of all: you  support a war of aggressions, denying an
attacked nations its right of self defense, that is guaranteed by the
international law.

Your statement that helping the Ukraine to self defend its country, 
would mean killing more people is not *only cynical* since it implies
that the aggressor succeeds unperturbed and causing the death of 10 of
thousands you seem not to care about, but is just *disgusting*

While I do not claim that Uwe should or should not delete his signature
(my personal opinion is he need not delete it, but I am not 100% sure it
doesn't conflict with this list's standards), I feel obliged to point
out that the above opinion of Jean looks nonsensical.  From what I know,
Ukrainians do their best to _stop_ the war, and I find it probable that
what they are doing is a _just war_
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Just_war_theory).

An imperfect analogy.  Imagine a serial killer shooting at unarmed kids
in a school.  Imagine someone may or may not provide a weapon to a guard
who would then be able to kill the murderer.  Would you call giving the
guard a weapon "promoting continuance of further killing at that
school"?  I surely would not.  I _would_ prefer disarming the killer in
such a way that _he_ wasn't killed, obviously, but if that is not
possible, I consider it morally acceptable to kill him.

Best,

Please note, all of you, that you are quickly approaching the line
where this will not be appropriate even for emacs-tangents.  There's
nothing event remotely related to Emacs in this discussion.

Well let me improve my English:

1. reprimand, censure, criminate -- (rebuke formally)

Did I? If that is so, I let it be. I consider it rather a request,
"Bitte um Einsicht", that we have there all kinds of users, and we do
not promote wars in GNU, but we strive to promote software freedom.

I hope you did not mean censoring, as that would be something else.

I never wrote a book in Germany. I have participated by providing
research information to a book author.

That is not a conspiracy but fact. Go to Holocaust Museum in Berlin
and make your own research.

Those statements are not related to any support of war, neither they
are related to your "weapon delivery" on GNU mailing lists. 

If you find it annoying, I am sure you will find some solution.

I have not insulted your families. I have not even know until now that
you have many of them. I know nothing about you but your full name,
email address and your university. I have not know nothing about
uprising, and I never involved myself in such discussions of uprising
in East Germany, Hungary, what. 

And I do not mind how you think I have perturbed mind, that is your
freedom. 

I welcome you just as anybody. I respect your free software
motivations.

I do not mind what you think about what country, if you are nazi or
not nazi, I do not mind that.

All the above IS NOT RELEVANT:

What I mind is that we do not divide people on GNU mailing list, by
promoting wars.

Speak about your politics and views somewhere else. Feel free.

> So I am forced to conclude that you are Putin's puppet, 

One big fricking buhahahahaha on that.

OK, I am sure that you have difficulties seeing the point. So the
point is here:

GNU Kind Communications Guidelines
https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/kind-communication.html

,----
| Please don't raise unrelated political issues in GNU Project
| discussions, because they are off-topic. The only political positions
| that the GNU Project endorses are (1) that users should have control

| supporting basic human rights in computing. We don't require you as a

Who cares if I am Russian or what. It may matter only to some types of
racists.

I do not support ANY war EVER, and never DID ever.

Problem is not so easy. Human lives are not a free programming code
where things may be placed very logical and transparent for everybody
to understand what is going on. A professior in University sitting far
far from those affected families in Ukraine cannot understand their
suffering, a professor may know international laws and act upon such
blunt forms and norms. What about human rights? Do those 13,000 people
have also human rights? They were Ukrainian nationals within Ukraine.

> I strongly condemn Putin's war of aggression against the Ukraine.

I would agree on your signature if you would rather be bipartisan and
say that you condemn all kinds of killings and aggression. However,
you are not independently looking on the situation.

> I support to deliver weapons to Ukraine’s military.

That is such a stupid decision, frankly. Those weapons are never
delivered free of charge, they are loan to Ukraine, thus you like
future generations of Ukrainian children to be enslaved to pax all the
taxes so that they can pay the money back for anyway (to be) destroyed
weapons.

If you live in EU, you are taking bread from other people without
asking them for consent. Somebody needs to pay all that war
support.

If you or me support it or not, it does not matter anyway, as
countries will simply decide on the top level to spend our citizen'
money and send those weapons. 

If you support it there are those corrupted European MEPs, write to
them.

There are better ways, for whatever you wish to achieve, including
collaborating with your university professors.

Feel free to go to Ukraine as mercenary, that is all your decision.

But all that is not relevant to GNU and free software.

Why did you find GNU mailing list to find your your proponents?

There are better places on Internet with more exposure for you. There
are better ways of advertising. Pay some advertising and get your
new members in the club.

> I support the ban of Russia from SWIFT.

SWIFT is very private organization. Me I support banning ALL countries
from SWIFT. Why only Russia?

> I support the EU membership of the Ukraine.

Why not?

It is up to every corrupted country to join the corrupted EU or not.

> https://how-to-help-ukraine-now.super.site/

I do not mind such a nice website. It is not directly supporting war mongering.

However, I do not mind that. 


I just say it is not place in GNU or Emacs to discuss about it, as the
mailing list remains public for long time, it is on Internet and
becomes part of databases of many search engines:

https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/

And we shall avoid "other politics" but keep "free software politics".

People reading what we are promoting may feel rejected and we get
division.

It is NOT alright to keep signature such as promoting delivery of
weapons to Ukraine for the sake of millions of people in Ukraine who
are in danger exaclty because of shelling for last 8 years there.

It is sensitive issue. Otherwise we could get all the nazis to promote
their hatred views in their signatures. 

There are many wars in the world.

What GNU does as community is bringing people together.

Any time that peope talk to each other and find understanding such as
in Emacs or anything else -- that brings humanity one step forward.

You don't get the hint, do you?

So now you are moderated here.  Congratulations!

P.S.  This will happen with others as well, if they don't get the
hint.
