The `user.name` and `user.email` variables determine what ends
|
|
up in the `author` and `committer` field of commit
|
|
objects.
|
|
If you need the `author` or `committer` to be different, the
|
|
`author.name`, `author.email`, `committer.name` or
|
|
`committer.email` variables can be set.
|
|
Also, all of these can be overridden by the `GIT_AUTHOR_NAME`,
|
|
`GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL`, `GIT_COMMITTER_NAME`,
|
|
`GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL` and `EMAIL` environment variables.
|
|

|
|
Note that the `name` forms of these variables conventionally refer to
|
|
some form of a personal name. See linkgit:git-commit[1] and the
|
|
environment variables section of linkgit:git[1] for more information on
|
|
these settings and the `credential.username` option if you're looking
|
|
for authentication credentials instead.
|
|
|
|
user.useConfigOnly::
|
|
Instruct Git to avoid trying to guess defaults for `user.email`
|
|
and `user.name`, and instead retrieve the values only from the
|
|
configuration. For example, if you have multiple email addresses
|
|
and would like to use a different one for each repository, then
|
|
with this configuration option set to `true` in the global config
|
|
along with a name, Git will prompt you to set up an email before
|
|
making new commits in a newly cloned repository.
|
|
Defaults to `false`.
|
|
|
|
user.signingKey::
|
|
If linkgit:git-tag[1] or linkgit:git-commit[1] is not selecting the
|
|
key you want it to automatically when creating a signed tag or
|
|
commit, you can override the default selection with this variable.
|
|
This option is passed unchanged to gpg's --local-user parameter,
|
|
so you may specify a key using any method that gpg supports.
