Summary:                    mgar doesn't assert SPKG_PACKAGER / SPKG_EMAIL
Description: 
When using mgar for the first time you might not have taken care of your
~/.garrc. When you then execute e.g. mgar package, mgar will just trigger
GAR which in turn will complain loudly (but not fail hard) with each
invocation.

...
        ==> Trying file://files/COPYING
/home/skayser/mgar/pkg/.buildsys/v2/gar//gar.pkg.mk:175: Please set
SPKG_PACKAGER in your .garrc file to your name
/home/skayser/mgar/pkg/.buildsys/v2/gar//gar.pkg.mk:180: Please set
SPKG_EMAIL in your .garrc file to your email address
...

Let mgar assert these settings and provide a template ~/.garrc that's
displayed to the user if the settings are missing.

Also consider to disable Git patching in the ~/.garrc template
(NOGITPATCH=1) so that new users don't need to set the git config bits
(user.email, user.name) right away, but can do so, once they start creating
patches.
