I intentionally don't set user.email in my ~/.gitconfig because I use different identities (on the same machine) depending on what project I am committing to (open-source vs. work). After I clone a repo, I *rely* on Git reminding me to set user.email on my first commit, because I invariably forget to set it myself. And for me, *any* universal, heuristically-determined email address would be wrong for me for at least some repos.
