Git Attribution Configurator FAQs

Question 1

How do I remove the 'Co-Authored-By' line from my commits?

Accepted Answer

You can simply ask Claude to 'remove the co-authored by' or 'stop adding attribution'. This skill will update your .claude/settings.local.json to set the commit attribution to an empty string.

Question 2

Does this skill affect my global Claude configuration?

Accepted Answer

No, it specifically targets the .claude/settings.local.json file within your current repository, allowing for project-specific attribution rules.

Question 3

Can I have different attribution for commits and pull requests?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You can independently configure the 'commit' field (which uses git trailers) and the 'pr' field (which uses standard markdown for descriptions).

Question 4

Can I give Claude a custom name in my project?

Accepted Answer

Yes. This skill allows you to change Claude's name to anything you like (e.g., 'Big Dawg') and even lets you choose whether to keep or remove the model version info.

Question 5

What happens if I want to revert my attribution changes?

Accepted Answer

The skill creates a .backup file before any modification. If the changes aren't what you expected, the skill can restore the previous settings from that backup.
