@dragnucs yes, the full message from Git made that clear (at least if you use --global it's one time). It just surprised me, because none of the tutorials I looked at or worked through (at github) even mentioned this! But I remember having to set up my name at least in other SCM systems (at least when collaborating) so it's not strange - it's the tutorials that are strange for not mentioning this (the ones I've seen at least). Anyway, I'm making progress! :) #hal #git more git fun #tomorrow, it's past my bed time already!
