-Review on the pull request asked for the module on every host, so `enable` defaults to true rather than being restated per host, and the explicit line in `hosts/neogaia/default.nix` is gone as redundant.
+Review on the pull request asked for the module on every host, which was first built by defaulting `enable` to true and dropping the per-host line.
-Defaulting the option keeps the opt-out this task's rationale asked for, where moving the identity into the shared base config would not.
+The operator then chose the opposite: `enable` defaults to false and each host enables it explicitly, so a host keeps reading as a full checklist of what it carries rather than hiding a default-on module.
-The `neogaia` toplevel hashes identically before and after the change.
+Enabling it is therefore a step when adding a host.
 
 The commit name is the literal `"alexion"` rather than `config.user.name`, which review raised as duplication.
 A Unix login and a commit display name are separate concepts that merely coincide here, so binding them would let a host overriding its login silently rewrite the operator's commit identity.

 - The substituters a `nix build` fetches from are the **daemon's** (`/etc/nix/nix.conf`), *not* the `nix.settings` of the config being built — those only govern the built system.

+- Git identity is declared in the flake by `modules/git.nix`, which writes `alexion <contact@alexion.dev>` — the identity all history uses — on any host enabling `modules.git`.
-  It is one of the few modules defaulting to on, so a host carries it without restating it and declines by setting `modules.git.enable = false`.
+  Every new host has to enable it, so that a host reads as a full checklist of what it carries.
   Once such a host has been rebuilt, a checkout on it needs no hand-written identity and keeps one across a reimage.
   Two things mask a broken module, so neither is evidence it works: this checkout's `.git/config` carries the same identity, and home-manager writes `~/.config/git/config` while a `~/.gitconfig` also exists and outranks it per key.
   That `~/.gitconfig` holds only a `tea` credential helper and no `user.*`, so it does not shadow the identity today, but it is undeclared and will not survive a reimage.
