Custom commit message

[mikhailbot]

So I know you can create custom commands to do things, but is there an easy way to add some text before/after the commit message so that when looking at the commit history we know it's from Spock?

So instead of Submission saved it could be [Spock] Submission saved or some other easy way to see what's an automated change versus a human one?

If a custom command is the way to do this, I assume I'd adjust the below to something like:

$commands[] = vsprintf('git commit -m "%s%s%s"', [
    '[Spock] ',
    $this->label(),
    $this->user ? ' by ' . $this->user->username() : ''
]);

You could try changing the git user name or email to be Spock in commands_before

git config user.name "Spock"

git config user.name "Spock"

Oh yeah, that could be better even, so it doesn't look like I'm the one committing everything!

So the only downside to that is because the email is still mine, Github will show my username not Spock. I could change the email and that would work showing as an unknown user instead of myself. Not ideal but I think that'll work for now.

The new Spock Update is awesome. @jasonvarga Can you do something like this:

git_username: '{{ committer:username }}'
git_email: '{{ committer:email }}'
