You, or someone else in here, has/have (done something)...

 

He or you has/have to (do it)...

 

Which is correct? Do the commas make any difference? Thanks.

Which is correct?-- With 'or', use the noun nearer to the verb.

Do the commas make any difference?-- No, and the commas are incorrect anyway; they should be deleted.
