This is the default \"mapping\" in git-svn.\n\nThe committer name is only visible in your git-svn clone. When you\ndcommit, it will use your normal SVN username, the same one which is\nused when you use SVN normally.\n\nYour configured git name and email will be used in your local commits,\nbut as soon as you dcommit, those commits are rewritten to use this\nusername@uuid style.\n\nIf you think this is really annoying, or you are planning to make a\npermanent migration away from SVN, you can use an authors-file when\ndoing the initial git-svn clone. See\nhttp://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-svn.html for more\ninfo on the --authors-file option.\n"}]}
