+If you've put the wiki behind an auth-proxy which is able to set headers containing the username / email of the authenticated user (for example nginx with [nginx-sso](https://github.com/Luzifer/nginx-sso)) you can specify the `--author-email-header` and/or `--author-name-header` and provide the header names you've used there. These values will then be used as the author of the commit while the committer will still be the wiki-user.
