Is it possible to do a Git Commit with the user being the current SSH user? -

us in our team have our own ssh usernames use log in our dev server. when git commit though (without specifying author), author of course becomes --global user.name set.

but possible automatically use current ssh user git author? can set default global user.name this. purpose when commits dev server, we'll know right away did , not see dev@oursite.com. thank you.

yes, @ least in workaround, can commit author option

--author=<author> 

and add alias section gitconfig

[alias]   ci= !git commit --author="\"env_author\"" 

if call

env_author="a <b@c.d>" git ci 

it use content of variable env_author author string. now, fill value in login profile scripts each user or magic whoami , don't know.
