I had the same problem and discovered also that I had not committed any file, so when I tried to commit again I get 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 the committed again
git commit -m 'Initial commit' then pushed
git push -u origin master I hope this helps
