GitHub primary email is leaked via .gitconfig

Bug description

Regardless of what I set in my account dashboard, .gitconfig is set to my GitHub primary email.

I'd like to be able to collaborate with other developers via Gitpod workspace snapshots, but I don't want to leak my personal email address when doing so.

Steps to reproduce

Change the email in personal account settings, then start any workspace.

Issue git config user.email in the terminal.

Workspace affected

No response

Expected behavior

I expect that .gitconfig will use the same address as GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL and GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL.

Example repository

No response

Anything else?
