Re: [viewvc-users] viewvc not displaying modifier name in author column

ViewVC only displays what's stored in the repository.  The author names it
shows are pulled directly from the "svn:author" Subversion revision
property.  So, if ViewVC isn't showing the author name, then either it has
somehow failed to extract that property from the repository, or the value
isn't set in the repository at all.
