 When `GITOPS_EXTRA_CMD` is set, the script runs it after `yq` and stages all changes (`git add -A`) instead of only the input file — so any files generated by the extra command (e.g. `Chart.lock`, `charts/`) are included in the commit.
 
+By default the GitOps commit is made as `gitea-ci-bot`. To use the original commit author instead, the dispatch workflow resolves it automatically from the consumer repo — no extra config needed. Just ensure the GitOps repo's `gitops-service.yaml` template has the `author_name` and `author_email` inputs and env mappings.
