    https://github.com/apache/nifi-registry/pull/112
  
    I noticed when I ran "git log" that the commit was made by "anonymous" 
which is correct since I was in an unsecure instance, but the email address of 
the commit ended up using the email from my ~/.gitconfig so I ended up with:
    
    ```
    nifi-versioned-flows$ git log
    commit 153690a2bd06d57ec416cb19b0582e2f7b138771 (HEAD -> master)
    Author: anonymous <bbe...@apache.org>
    Date:   Thu Apr 26 10:58:40 2018 -0400
    
        Test
    ```
    This is technically correct since that is the email address that should be 
found when there is not a more specific one, but should we make a property on 
the provider config like "Commit Email Address" ? or should we just leave it up 
to users to setup their gitconfig appropriately.
    
    Ultimately we won't be able to have per-user email addresses anyway because 
when secured we will be using the identity of the proxied-entity as the author, 
and we have no way of knowing their email address.
