How to set author and email in emacs.

How to set author and email in emacs.

[Riadh Elloumi]

Hi all,

What can I do to change the "author" and "<author@chouette>" that I get 
in my ChangeLog when I use the command "Update Changelog" (Menu Version 
Control), like this:

2005-10-25  author  <author@chouette>

	* file.c: some action.

In other words, are there any lisp variables to set in ~/.emacs to set 
may name and email?

Thank you in advance,

Riadh.

I think that works only for email sending.

Thinking is not always enough. You should try also ;-).

What's wrong with actually trying Matthieu's suggestion?

There's also `add-log-mailing-address' and `add-log-full-name' when
using `add-change-log-entry' and related commands.

Bye, Reiner.
