Git Does Not Allow Commit to Local Repository #1

Open RHieger opened 1 year ago

RHieger commented 1 year ago

Hi,

I just downloaded GitViewer as its approach appealed to my development style.

I have just begun working with it and GitViewer does not allow me to make a commit to my local repository, claiming that there is no commit identity, but from all I can tell, this is not the case.

I attach the following screenshots to clarify the problem:

  1. Screenshot of the repository screen showing a message at bottom left about no commit identity being present.
  2. Screenshot of the user preferences panel clearly showing that there is a commit identity present.

Any assistance you can provide on this issue is greatly appreciated.

Best wishes,

Robert Hieger

This is probably already answered but I also had a similar issue when trying out the application on the iPad. The solution for this problem is to open the particular repository then its settings (via the gear icon). Pick the identity there and make sure to hit save. After that the application should unlock the commit button.

Thank you. This worked like a charm. This seems not to be a very user-friendly aspect of the application. But now that I know where to look for it, I don't anticipate further issues.
