From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> In 3bc2111fc2e9 (stash: tolerate missing user identity, 2018-11-18), `git stash` learned to provide a fallback identity for the case that no proper name/email was given (and `git stash` does not really care about a correct identity anyway, but it does want to create a commit object). In preparation for the same functionality in the upcoming built-in version of `git stash`, let's offer the same functionality as an API function.
