It may happen that sometimes you need to temporarily do commits with another author's name and email.
You can do this with this command:

GIT_COMMITTER_NAME="Other Name" GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL="Other Email" git commit -m Test --author "Other Name <adriana.sanduta@isa.utm.md>" 

But you may want to do it multiple times, so you can create a shell function:

# Add me to shell config file. ~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc # Git with author git_w_a(){ COMMITTER_NAME="Other Name" COMMITTER_EMAIL="other_email@example.com" echo " Running: GIT_COMMITTER_NAME=\"$COMMITTER_NAME\" GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL=\"$COMMITTER_EMAIL\" git $@ --author \"$COMMITTER_NAME <$COMMITTER_EMAIL>\" " GIT_COMMITTER_NAME="$COMMITTER_NAME" \ GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL="$COMMITTER_EMAIL" \ git $@ \ --author "$COMMITTER_NAME <$COMMITTER_EMAIL>" } 

Usage:

git commit -m "Test" # Commit with default user name and email git_w_a commit -m "Test" # Commit with other user name and email 

Don't forget to change the COMMITTER_NAME and COMMITTER_EMAIL
