Need help with git config so that Forge will deploy site
My site has stopped deploying on Forge because Git doesn't know who I am. So I'm getting an error that tells me to do this: ` *** Please tell me who you are.
Run
git config --global user.email "[email protected]" git config --global user.name "Your Name"
to set your account's default identity. Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.`
But I've done that a few times, and I've run "git config -- list" to make sure my email and name are in fact entered there. Everything looks right. But still, Forge (or Git) returns the same error. Can anyone help?
Level 17
Yes. Several times! And when I run "git config --list" both my name and email seem to be right. But the problem persists.
Level 75
Just curious, could it be some kind of cache problem.
Level 17
Yes, maybe. That would make sense. How would I resolve that?
