I just grabbed a repository using git-svn, and the commiter name shows a GUID for the domain name. For example,

     first.last <first.last@5ab5abacd-6ff9-f940-aeea-106a2a325327>

I set my git name and email address to show what I want in the end, the real company email address. Will this apparent mapping be a problem when I dcommit?
