Having trouble committing

[adleon53]

Anytime I try to commit, I get this message instead:

***** 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 'adleo@DESKTOP-F47O8AL.(none)')**

This is with only one line. Tried it with two different repositories and still got this message. Help!

Have you run the config step of the setup? ( https://cfss.uchicago.edu/setup/personalize-git/) That should fix the problem, but you can also just follow the instructions in the error message.
