      Description of problem:

      When execute commit/push after launching a factory on gitlab server there is observated a confusing name/email.
      Actually the name looks as 'expecting', because is obtained from 'user-profile' Secret of <user>-devspaces namespace. But in the same time it's a bit confused

      Prerequisites (if any, like setup, operators/versions):

      -DS 3.4.0.RC-01-11
      -gitlab server with test repository available to launch a factory
      -configured PAT

      Steps to Reproduce

      -launch a factory
      -make git commit and push
      -watch username and email in terminal
      (git config --list)

      Actual results:

      Data from 'user-profile' secret

      PAT
      user.name=admin
user.email=admin@che

      Expected results:

      Reproducibility (Always/Intermittent/Only Once):

      Always
