title: Git: Please tell me who you are
body: <p>I opened my repository in the Git Gui for Windows, and pressed commit. I got</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Unable to obtain your identity:</p>
    
    <p>Please tell me who you are [...] fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'foo@int123123.(none)')</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>where I anonymized the email address.</p>
  
  <p>However, I had already set up the email address globally using the git console (for windows). To check, I directed myself into the repository folder and entered</p>
  
  <pre><code>git config --list
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and the output was</p>
  
  <pre><code>user.name=myName
  user.mail=myMail
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>again anonymized, where <code>myMail</code> strictly is not <code>foo@int123123</code>. What am I to do?</p>
