Most git instructions don't include lines like:
git push ssh://<username>@gerrit.wikimedia.org:29418/operations/puppet  
HEAD:refs/for/test

This looks screwed up too:
git config --global user.name "<wiki-username>"

Last I checked user.name was intended to be a realname not some name  
linking.
My user.name is set to "Daniel Friesen" and there's no way in hell I'm  
changing it to "Dantman" which I DO expect to be my username on labs and  
whatnot.
There is likewise no way in hell I'm going to use  
`ssh://daniel%20frie...@gerrit.wikimedia.org`.

In fact this seams to be at odds with our own git migration notes. There  
seams to be notes on taking the USERINFO from svn usernames and converting  
them in the git conversion to realname and e-mail.
