Currently commits made through Octopus that use a Git credential set the author to the Octopus user name and email address, and the committer to Octopus Deploy. This can cause issues for some customers who use pre-receive hooks in their Git provider that require the author and committer of a commit to be the same.

We're shipping a new setting that enables setting the committer to be the same as the author.
