Hi Stefano,

first of all, kudos for inventing debcheckout. It is really a tool that changes
how Debian is.

I would like to suggest to run the following two system commands in git
repositories after checking them out:

  git config user.name "$DEBFULLNAME"
  git config user.email "$DEBEMAIL"

The rationale is that even if $HOME/.git-config is set, it may not be the best
choice. For instance, at work I want my git repositories to use my work email
address, but sometimes I do some Debian stuff when there is a potential
synergy, and when I ‘debcheckout’ a package I would love if it were
automagically set up with my Debian identity. 

Bon dimanche,
