Well, it seems like there are two use cases:
1. Verify that an someone with commit access has their git set up correctly (e.g. \
don't use work identify for KDE). For this we can verify against the info on file at \
identity.kde.org 2. Verify that a patch from a more casual contributor has \
appropriate correct authorship information. The contributor responsible for reviewing \
and/or landing the patch is currently expected to do this.
It seems like the hookscript can catch the first case, but the second one will be in \
the hands of a human.
