How can I set the git configs user.name and user.email via environment variables

[antnorwe]

I am running code-server in a Kubernetes cluster, and so its entirely possible that the pods hosting it might be recreated at any point. The git config is local and, to the best of my knowledge, not stored in the code-server config. Therefore, if the pod is recreated the git config will be destroyed and I'd have to re-enter it.

Am I missing something? I couldn't find anything in the docs about how to set the Env variables to recreate these configuration items on a rebuild.

I believe git will take the GIT_AUTHOR_NAME and GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL environment variables, is that what you mean? They could be set via extraVars.
