It's quite weird to me that eclipse always show up default git username when make Commit and Push. Shown below：

enter image description here

Have been changed the git username and email as followed the instruction introduced How do I change the default author and committer in the Eclipse Git plugin?

But problem still remains, any idea will be appreciated.

  • That screenshot is showing a login dialog asking for the username and password required to authenticate when **pushing**. It is likely not the same as the committer/author name. What happens if you check the "Store in Secure Store" after changing the username and password in the dialog shown? – Lasse V. Karlsen Mar 16 '17 at 17:09

    The `git` username shown in the dialog cannot be changed, I cannot figure out the reason@LasseV.Karlsen – Tangoo Mar 17 '17 at 01:21

You don't change that user. Github uses user git and your ssh key to figure out who you are when you push. You should leave that configuration as it is, because it is correct and should not be altered.
