cloaked in secrecy: Today we’re
Until today, all web-based GitHub Flow used your primary email address.
This included creating, editing, and deleting files, as well as merging pull requests.
But now you can keep your email address private. To do so, visit your email settings page:
With this turned on, web-based operations will use a username@users.noreply.github.com email address.
Think of this as git config user.email for the website. You should still use git config
for configuring your email address for commits done via the command line, though.
