I had the same problem and discovered also that I had not committed any file, so when I tried to commit again, I got this error message:

*** 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. fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'USER@WINDOWS-HE6I2CL.(none)')

Then all I did was add my email and name globally and then committed again:

git commit -m 'Initial commit' 
git commit -m 'Initial commit'

Then pushed

git push -u origin master 
git push -u origin master
