Problem Description.
Using git commit -m “wrote a readme file”, I encountered this problem
** 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 ‘tim@newton.(none)’)
Solution.
Find the .git folder in the project directory, open it, find the config file, and add the following information at the end.
[user]
email=your email
name=your name
Note: You may not be able to find the .git file in the project directory, that’s because this directory is hidden by default, let’s show it and it will be fine.
