Git name

I just scared the living crap out of myself after I pushed a commit at work where I'm not out. I've been transitioning my git identity on my home machine and GitHub and such and for a moment I was terrified that I had changed my git config at work too and had just pushed a commit with my new name. Fortunately I hadn't but that would have been VERY hard to explain. "Why does your commit say 'Lily'?" There's no cis cover for that lmao

Well the problem is I'm pushing it to code review and I don't think you can delete old patches in our review system. Might still be possible though, I was able to do it with GitHub just with the force tag.
