This basically introduces the "getting started" section so users get familiar with the configuration from the get-go, and also, most people prefer to teach 'git config --global' to setup the user name and email. Here are a few examples:

git tutorial: http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/gittutorial.html

GNOME: http://live.gnome.org/Git/Developers

SourceForge: http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/sourceforge/wiki/Git

github: http://help.github.com/git-email-settings/
