Package: git-buildpackage Version: 0.8.6 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch I realize that https://bugs.debian.org/679121 is similar. In case you prefer to close this issue in favor of #679121, please update #679121 with a clear decision as to how honouring DEBFULLNAME and DEBEMAIL in git-buildpackage should be implemented, and I’ll be happy to follow up.
Until that’s worked out, I’d like to propose a slightly different approach which I have been using for years: at clone-time, I set user.email to my debian email address. Please consider merging the attached patch.
