Mh... it made me not using cg-init, but git-init, and after that editing .git/config, before the first commit. This doesn't apply to works with git-svn, because here imported commits are tailored from the base-uuid of the SVN repository and the commit-user. niv after that i can setup my .git/config, as well.
