I want to set the default author on the Version Control window in Intellij. I always need to type again and again when I'm commiting new code.
Is there any way to set that value by default without needing to edit in every commit I make?
I've already set git user and email on my ~/.gitconfig
[user]
email = [email protected]
name = waghcwb

Go to Settings -> Editor -> Live Templates , click the Plus Icon Button (on the right). In the "Abbreviation" field, enter the string that should activate the template (e.g. @a ), and in the "Template Text" area enter the string to complete (e.g. @author - My Name ).
In the Settings/Preferences dialog Ctrl+Alt+S , select Appearance and Behavior | System Settings | Passwords on the left. Select how you want IntelliJ IDEA to process passwords for Git remote repositories: In native Keychain: select this option to use native Keychain to store your passwords.
VCS - > Git - > Remotes Popup will open with all repository URLs configured, you can simply edit them or add new one. Save this answer.
If you have set your user.name and user.email in your ~/.gitconfig you can just leave the Author field empty and Git will look in ~/.gitconfig .

Go to your project where git is initialized.
Then enable the hidden folders and find ".git" and go inside the folder.
Find the file called "config" and add below code and save.
[user]
name = username
email = [email protected]
This will set default git author in Intellij permanently
