[Bug]: Github Action Commit Username does not match PAT_USERNAME

[tdickman]

Is there an existing issue for the same bug? (If one exists, thumbs up or comment on the issue instead).

• [x] I have checked the existing issues.

Describe the bug and reproduction steps

If I use the Github Actions Workflow, and set PAT_TOKEN, commits marked as openhands-agent instead of using the value from PAT_USERNAME.

If I set PAT_USERNAME, commits should come from that username.

Hi @tdickman, I believe this behavior is intended

We want to ensure resolver commits are associated with the agent (for traceability)

The PR, however, when opened is under PAT_USERNAME. This is to ensure the person who requested the resolver job can't approve the resulting PR and bypass the review process

[tdickman]

@malhotra5 got it. We are using a robot account for the github action / resolver, so the pull request comes from company-robot, but commits come from openhands-agent. We are hoping to have multiple people working in the repository use the github action, so it feels weird to have it under a single person's account (and also feels weird to have the pull request and commits with different usernames).

@malhotra5 If I understand the complaint, it is the the openhands-agent does not have a published PGP sigs and is not configured on openhands cloud to sign commits. I have the same issue, though I think it would be a feature request rather than a bug. If I have misunderstood @tdickman, I'll open a separate PR for that.

IMHO it's important to solve as many repos do not allow unsigned commits. Which means I have to rebase and make my self the author of open-hands agent commits.
