      configure.ac vertical whitespace usage cleanup
 
git-var -l shows:

 GIT_COMMITTER_IDENT=Jakub Narebski <jnareb@gmail.com> 1152564452 +0200
 GIT_AUTHOR_IDENT=Jakub Narebski <jnareb@gmail.com> 1152564452 +0200

BUT in git/.git/logs/refs/heads/autoconf I have (broken into lines):
  fe7b45a419ae62ed96148d98f6aba8710a6f6245
  059111c9381ce1444d17c8fc35606b0aa417ca42 
  Jakub Narebski <jnareb@roke.D-201> 1152377555 +0200   
  commit: configure.ac vertical whitespace usage cleanu

where "roke.D-201" are results of "hostname -f" on my computer, and are suitable _only_ for my small private local network.

Bug or a feature?

I use git 1.4.0.
