Early returns don't look good, eg on termite

From git://git.postgresql.org/git/postgresql
7e3ae54..83a25a5 REL9_2_STABLE -> REL9_2_STABLE
7e3ae54..83a25a5 github/REL9_2_STABLE -> github/REL9_2_STABLE
From /home/pgbuildfarm/buildroot-termite/pgmirror
+ 19371e1...83a25a5 REL9_2_STABLE -> origin/REL9_2_STABLE (forced update)

*** Please tell me who you are.

Run

git config --global user.email "you(at)example(dot)com"
git config --global user.name "Your Name"

to set your account's default identity.
Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.

fatal: empty ident <pgbuildfarm(at)ajivana(dot)pg(dot)osuosl(dot)org> not allowed

Somehow the reset is clobbering local configuration on some members?

We should advise buildfarm owners how to fix that.
