Node-red won't commit because username is not set

Modifications

Having, just updated to the latest cerbo node-red version, I’m finding that I can’t make a commit from the GUI. I have projects setup and I have setup a name and also used git config to set up my username and email. I have the following error come up on the screen.

Your Git client is not configured with a username/email.

I can’t find anything useful about this. Has anyone else experience it using projects on node-red? I can commit from the command line but want to avoid that in normal use.

Ok, I’m not sure why, but the .git folder had nodered:nodered for ownership. But the entries inside were all set up as root.

sudo chown -R nodered:nodered .git

from the project folder fixed everything.
