Gmail decided this mail is spam, probably because of the "apologize"
word (frequent in the Nigerian letters :-)).

I asked the GIT people some time ago and they were OK with porcelain
tools postings here. They should let me know if it become annoying.
You could also use https://gna.org/bugs/?group=stgit for reporting
bugs (or search for previous reports).

A quick fix is to run:

git repo-config --global user.name "Adam J. Richter"
git repo-config --global user.email adam@yggdrasil.com

As Yann said, there is already a bug logged for this issue. I also
think there is a different issue mailed me yesterday with the same
thing when pushing a patch, even though the patch author/committer
information was already in the patch metadata handled by StGIT.

I'll have a look at this.
