<p></p>
<p>Running <code>geany -v</code> revealed the underlying GIT error:</p>
<pre><code>Author identity unknown

*** Please tell me who you are.

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.

fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'enrico@DESKTOP-1921KWH.(none)')
</code></pre>
<p>So, in my case the GIT repository wasn't configured properly.<br>
After setting author, the <code>git commit</code> worked successfully.</p>
