Oh, I see. Yes, it does.
Probably if KDE has this use-case then that means we need to implement
it as a feature on size alone, but I briefly looked into the code and
it requires a bit more restructuring than I'm willing to do over
coffee.
I think as a stop-gap measure you'll have to use an alias such as
ci = commit --author="your usual <author>"
along with a local setting for user.email to force them to be
different. (Note that this will re-set the author when saying 'git
ci --amend' on other people's commits!)
