No, but having a config option for something that git already provides
several ways to specify can't possibly be a good idea, especially
usability-wise. The only use I can think of is if you _want_ to have
different identities for git and stgit in the same repository, and
that's just mad.

I'm preparing a patch to fix this. Stay tuned. :-)
