Include Git Username and Email Setup In Initial Workspace Setup #145

Open jjsfdc opened 2 years ago

jjsfdc commented 2 years ago

When I create a new workspace and start doing work in it, the first time I try to commit my code in Git using the source control tab on the left side of the IDE, it fails because my username and email haven't been set up in the git executable for that workspace.

This means I have to go to terminal and run the commands:

git config --global user.email "some@email.com"
git config --global user.name "Firstname Lastname"

I feel that, if the user were prompted for this information during setup of the workspace, there wouldn't be a need for a user to drop into the terminal and run UNIX CLI commands to complete their workspace setup.

Right now I work around this by running a custom script upon creating a new workspace.

@smaddox-sf I looked into this one a little bit and chatted with Jonathan. More details can be found in this slack thread.
