Description
So currently, if one decides to preform a commit, but there is no user set. The first commit is signed with a generated name/email.
While it is possible to amend it. (Thanks for the tip) It would be more practical to have a one time prompt pointing this out before doing so.

Research direction
Inspect the commit flow and the handling of missing Git user identity. Confirm how the first commit is signed when no user is configured, then verify that a prompt appears before that commit and is not repeatedly shown after the user has been informed.
