looks like you need to fix your git environment & re-submit this patch
Yeah, I saw it does that in git send-email, but the first prompt "Who should the emails appear to be from?" is correct, and the email in the .gitconfig is correct. I don't know where's it's pulling that info from or why it's different from the prompt. It's very annoying.
it's most likely encoded in the patch itself. the git-send-email question only asks about the From: field, not the author aspect.
make sure your ~/.gitconfig is correct and has user.name and user.email set, then amend the patch (assuming it's the last changeset in your branch) by doing: git commit --amend --author 'Your Name your@email.com'
that should reset all the relevant fields -mike
