[Github-comments] [geany/geany-plugins] GeanyVC git commit not working (Windows) (#1056)

[Enrico Tröger]

Running `geany -v` revealed the underlying GIT error:
```
Author identity unknown

*** Please tell me who you are.

Run

  git config --global user.email "you at 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.

fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'enrico at DESKTOP-1921KWH.(none)')
```
So, in my case the GIT repository wasn't configured properly.
After setting author, the `git commit` worked successfully.
