Change username to which my commits are credited on GitLab
<p><strong>Problem</strong></p>

<p>At some point in time, I used the command <code>git config --global user.name = "MyUsername"</code>, but the way to do this is actually <code>git config --global user.name "MyUsername"</code>, so what happened was that my username was set to <code>=</code>.</p>

<p>I have since changed this back to MyUsername, but my commits are still being credited to <code>=</code> in the graphs on GitLab. The email-address is correct though.</p>

<p><strong>Question</strong></p>

<p>Is there a way to change this username? The commits are credited to my correct email-address, so I guess there should be a way to simply change which username is linked to that email address?</p>

<p><strong>Caveats</strong></p>

<p>My profile page shows my correct username.</p>

<p>Side note: Private Gitlab server.</p>

<p>My commits also show up with the correct username. Example:</p>
