git global config issue
- by Andrew Bullock
Somehow, my global git (msysgit) settings for user.name and user.email (and god knows what else) are set to a recent ex-colleague's details.
When I try and change them i get could not commit to u://.gitconfig
If I try and create u://.gitconfig through git bash then i get permission denied.
C:\Users\<My Username>\
contains no references to git.
I've tried uninstalling, searching the registry and my file system for all references to git and I can't find any (windows file search is crap though).
What the hell is going on? Why even after reinstalling are this guys details still the global settings???
Thanks
