Porting/updateAUTHORS.pl: Suggested `git config` command is wrong
When you run tests in a repository that has local modifications
`t/porting/authors.t` checks if your git is correctly configured
with your identity. However, the suggested commands don't work,
because `git config` doesn't need a `--set` flag to set options.
This patch removes the `--set` from the suggested commands which is
not necessary to set the variables in the local git repository. For
comparison, if you run `git commit` without your identity set up, it
suggests:
```
Run
git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
to set your account's default identity.
Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.
```
