Creating a new repository does not use the name of the logged in user
When I create a repository, the commit references another user than the one that created the repository.
How can I change the original committer to another user ?
Or better, ensure the repository gets its first commit with the logged in user.

You can use Command ⌘ instead of Control ^ on Mac

Stecy,
This only happens when a repository is initialized with .hgignore file. If
you want the very first commit to be from some specific user, you can
create an empty repository and then push to it.

That's a workaround. :(
I think it is rather arbitrary to have some user (I guess the first created user) always the creator of a repository instead of the user that actually creates it!
Please fix.
