How do I set a custom Author name in TortoiseSVN locally?

I am using auto props to populate the $Id$ tag with TortoiseSVN but it is using the author name that is the name of the computer, in this case 'Peter'.

I want it to use my name instead of the computer's account name. I am using Vista on this machine. The repo is local to my machine.

Thanks!

TortoiseSVN does not have such a feature. It only asks for a username if the server requests one. Since your repo is local, there is no authentication at all and therefore TSVN doesn't ask for a username/password. In that case, the windows logon name is used automatically.

Sorry.
