LDAP commit appears from username at pcname.domain.com
Radi A.
Why does a commit from an LDAP user appear as "username at pcname.domain.com" instead of "username at domain.com"?
Thanks!

This is likely due to the fact that the commiter's local Mercurial
configuration is missing an important parameter (
http://stackoverflow.com/a/1401819 ), which forces Mercurial to use the
FQDN as the domain part of the committer's email address.

Interesting.
I'm not that big in the details of Mercurial so I will ask the question.
Is it possible to have anything in the mercurial username, like "CodeMonkey", but when you pull/commit to get a login prompt that asks you for AD credentials, and you type "[email blocked]"?
If not, it sounds like we need to instruct developers to not just use any username on their local Mercurial config, but use their real AD account.
R.

Radi,
That's exactly what happens when pushing to HgLab. It requires a "pusher"
to authenticate with whatever credentials are configured for a particular
HgLab instance. In your case that would be domain login and password.
