UserIDs and setups for developers



My inclination from wayback was that if I had done something in 
perl, the email address in the documentation would be perl@....  
It seems that I need to get serious about some of this, and I am 
not quite sure what is the best way to approach this.

I am guessing the running Git is the best option for version 
control.  But looking at the setup for dummies part of the 
documentation, it wants people to configure Git with an email 
address.  Which makes me think that to do things in the way I had 
originally leanded towards, I would have to have to add a UserID 
of perl to my computer, who happened to have /home/fred/src/perl 
as a HOME directory, and that the UID of perl is the same as that 
of fred.

Does this make sense?  Is there a better way?
