Phabricator links commits based on the email address, username, and real name, roughly in order. My guess is that your local Git is configured to commit as Some User <mymail@example.com>
, so when the commit is parsed by Phabricator it looks for the user with that address and finds admin
. Note that the author, committer and pusher of a commit can all be different (at least, in Git).
The easiest fixes are probably:
- Delete the
admin
account completely (you can do this from the "People" application); or - log in as the
admin
account and change its email address in Settings.
