+ 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.
+ See linkgit:git-commit-tree[1] for more information.
