Well, I'm wary of putting
GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL=joel.becker@oracle.com as a permanent part of my
environment, for fear of overriding some other authors at some point.
On the other hand, if I don't put it in the environment, I get a bogus
author line (jlbec@thisbox.oracle.com). So I end up having to
hand-write the AUTHOR_EMAIL lines on each commit line; not a solution
I'm happy with.
This way, I'd have a chance to edit it and be sure :-)
