Subject: [PATCH] ident: check for useConfigOnly before auto-detection of
name/email
If user.useConfigOnly is set, it does not make sense to try to
auto-detect the name and/or the email. The auto-detection may
even result in a bogus name and trigger an error message.
Check if the use-config-only is set and die if no explicit name was
given, before attempting to auto-detect, to correct this.
