Merge Developers

Developers often commit from different Git accounts — work laptop vs. personal machine, old email vs. new email. Merge these identities together to get accurate statistics for each person.

Key Features

• Combine multiple Git identities (name + email pairs) into one
• Set custom display name and email for the merged profile
• View aggregated statistics for all merged identities
• Search available developers to merge
• Remove identities from merged profile

Merge Identities

2. Use search to filter if needed
3. Click "Merge" in that row
4. The identity moves to the "Merged Identities" table

Unmerge Identities

Click "Remove" next to any merged identity (except the primary one) to separate it back into its own developer entry.
