+'@backstage/plugin-scaffolder-backend': patch
+---
+
+Adding `config: Config` as a required argument to `createBuiltinActions` and downstream methods in order to support configuration of the default git author used for Scaffolder commits.
+
+The affected methods are:
+
+- `createBuiltinActions`
+- `createPublishGithubAction`
+- `createPublishGitlabAction`
+- `createPublishBitbucketAction`
+- `createPublishAzureAction`
+
+Call sites to these methods will need to be migrated to include the new `config` argument. See `createRouter` in `plugins/scaffolder-backend/src/service/router.ts` for an example of adding this new argument.
+
+To configure the default git author, use the `defaultAuthor` key under `scaffolder` in `app-config.yaml`:
+
+```yaml
+scaffolder:
+  defaultAuthor:
+    name: Example
+    email: example@example.com
+```
