Question

All of my colleague's pushes to the repo have their names linked to their fogbugz ID. Mine is not. Why?

Answer 1

We attempt to link by comparing the email address you use in your Mercurial commit messages to those in your FogBugz account. If they match, we link. Otherwise, we do not. You are most likely using a different email address for your Mercurial commit messages, or you are lacking an email address entirely. To fix that:

From the command line:

1. Open ~/.hgrc (Unix) or %USERPROFILE%\Mercurial.ini (Windows)
2. Find the [ui] section
3. Find the username line within that
4. Change it to read username = Your Name <you@somedomain.com>, where the email address is the same as your email in your FogBugz install.

For Tortoise:

1. Right-click anywhere in Explorer
2. Choose TortoiseHg ⟶ Global Settings
3. Go to Commit
4. Set your Username as Your Name <you@somedomain.com>, where the email address is the same as the one in your FogBugz install
