It's better to find out you need to fix your author and
committer information before you enter a long commit message.

Hmm.. It seems that both sets of environment variables must be 
properly set before commit will succeed?  For some reason I thought 
that if AUTHOR was properly set it would be used as the committer too
when the GIT_COMMITTER_* environment variables weren't set.  All I
ever use are the config user.email/name variables which do work for
both author and committer.

But it looks like we have to test both variables before proceeding.
