About the only trouble that can cause is a failed push when
git-receive-pack needs to generate the reflog entry but cannot
get the user's committer data because their gecos information
doesn't exist.

In that case, it would be best if it let the commit go through using
only the username. Reflogs are fixable afterwards, so there's no real
harm done.

This sounds sensible, regardless of the current discussion on
the default 'logallrefupdates' setting.

Volunteers?
