Configuring Git Using Git bash

The first thing you should do when you install Git is to set your user name and email address. This is important because every Git commit uses this information, and it’s immutably baked into the commits you start creating.

Open Git Bash and run the following commands. Make sure that you put your name & email while executing these commands.

git config --global user.name "John Doe"
git config --global user.email johndoe@example.com

You can rerun the command if you happen to make any mistakes. We are humans after all & bound to mistake somewhere or other!
