Description Allen Winter 2015-09-09 13:01:35 UTC

I use multiple identities during my typical day: my work identity and my kde identity.

my default identity in $HOME/.gitconfig is my work identity

I would like kdesrc-build to support adding my kde identity to the individual KDE repos (i.e. each .git/config) so that any of my commits have my kde and not my work email and user name


Reproducible: Always



Expected Results:  
the git checkouts by kdesrc-build should set user.name and user.email git configurations.

Sounds like a good idea.

Git commit 21b5eb9371fbb0f5f43f7cba7606c4bdb32fedd4 by Michael Pyne.

Add git-user option.

This option can be used to setup the user.name and user.email git-config
options within each new git repository cloned or installed from
snapshot, including kde-projects repositories. This can be useful for
KDE developers with multiple Git identities that they use for
development.

Module settings override global settings so you could e.g. have a global
git-user option for KDE modules and then override specific modules or
module-sets with a different git-user setting.

This setting is only applied during the initial git-clone process
though... if there's interest in having kdesrc-build re-apply settings
later that's possible too.
