Setting your commit email address
Please make sure you've setup your commit email address. It makes it much
easier to find out who committed something and how to contact them if
there's a problem.
You typically use the following to set your email address globally in git:
$ git config --global user.email "email@example.com"
You can also setup different repos with different email addresses by using:
$ git config user.email "email@example.com"
In the below example, it's much easier to follow up with the author of the
1st commit than the author of the 2nd commit:
commit b1107d2e403404337c22830a4964eefc2490ef50
Author: John Doe <jd...@pivotal.io>
Date: Tue Jun 16 12:25:30 2020 -0700

Re: Setting your commit email address
Posted by Jacob Barrett <ja...@vmware.com>.
I think it's useful for contact those that feel compelled to hide their email addresses. If there is an email address you can surely use that directly. I have used the commenting feature a few times and like it because it puts the comment with the code making it dead clear what I am talking about.
I think the issue with PRs is one of email fatigue. Because every JIRA and every PR gets blasted to mailing list we tend to ignore the stream of messages. But what if the only JIRAs and PRs you got were just those your were tagged in? I sort of have this working for myself for JIRAs but still experimenting. I unsubscribed from the issues list. Now the only JIRAs I get notifications on are ones I am watching. The downside is I don’t get to see new JIRAs as they come in. There is a feature in JIRA to email everyone or a set of people on JIRA create events. It wasn’t user settable before but maybe it is now. I plan to investigate this in the future. For now I am enjoying less of the JIRA spam. I want to find a similar pattern for PRs. Notify me on new PRs and then only for PRs I am subscribed to or mentioned.

Re: Setting your commit email address
Posted by Kirk Lund <kl...@apache.org>.
Since most folks don't even notice they've been requested to review a PR, I
don't have high confidence that they'll notice a notification about a
comment on a past commit. Seems sort of useful though. Thank you!

Perhaps a little-known feature of GitHub: you can comment on commits too, not just on PRs. For example: https://github.com/apache/geode/commit/d82e30d3dd50e3983c332063c41915e97aca721a

I'm not sure what you're talking about Jake (PRs?). I'm talking about
commits that are already on develop.
For example, if someone adds a new dunit test that turns out to be very

an email directly (privately) and I have no way to do that if they're

Re: Setting your commit email address

Hi All,
Just my opinion here, but I think that if you commit something that breaks CI, I should be able e-mail you at the email address on your commit.
Thanks,

Re: Setting your commit email address
Posted by Kirk Lund <kl...@apache.org>.
I guess my main point is that I don't like private emails in OSS commit
messages.
Author: John Doe <jo...@users.noreply.github.com>
If there's a problem with a commit made by John Doe and he doesn't work for
Pivotal, then I have no idea how to contact him directly to discuss the
commit. If I visit github.com/johndoe, there's no way to send a message to
Mr. Doe. If Mr. Doe is a committer, then I know johndoe@apache.org exists.
Is there really a privacy problem with having "johndoe@apache.org" in the

same community to contact that person which is why I don't like private

Are you getting lots of spam from git commits??

RE: Setting your commit email address
Posted by Nabarun Nag <nn...@vmware.com>.
Hi Kirk,
I think it is also now in the privacy setting in GitHub for anyone who wants to keep emails private. [https://github.com/settings/emails : https://github.com/settings/emails ]
This setting is needed for web based git operations like squash merging PRs etc.
In GitHub:
"Keep my email addresses private
We’ll remove your public profile email and use nabarunnag@users.noreply.github.com when performing web-based Git operations (e.g. edits and merges) and sending email on your behalf. If you want command line Git operations to use your private email you must set your email in Git."

Subject: Setting your commit email address
Please make sure you've setup your commit email address. It makes it much easier to find out who committed something and how to contact them if there's a problem.
You typically use the following to set your email address globally in git:
$ git config --global user.email "email@example.com"
You can also setup different repos with different email addresses by using:
$ git config user.email "email@example.com"
In the below example, it's much easier to follow up with the author of the 1st commit than the author of the 2nd commit:
commit b1107d2e403404337c22830a4964eefc2490ef50
