I have a post-commit hook in GIT that launches the associated Jenkins job by
loading http://jenkins/job/buildWithParameters using cURL - the problem is
that job says "Started by anonymous user" which, while accurate, is not
entirely helpful.

Is there a way to pass information in the URL so that Jenkins can accurately
say "Started due to a GIT change"?  Or any random "Started by XYZ"?

I have seen suggestions that I can put the information in the console log,
or some other parameter, but those aren't going to be as obvious as if I can
put it in the "Started by" line.

Thanks,
Chris
