*** Please tell me who you are.
Run
git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
git config --global user.name "Your Name"

You need to address this issue before it will build successfully.

Why is that?

And what exactly is it looking for?

@BRRABill Unsure why this started occurring. It's possibly due to my inclusion of git stash -u in the updater script.

Is it looking to an account associated with XO, or with git?

Danp

@BRRABill It's a git issue unrelated to XO.

OK, so use my git account info there...

Well, what is the point of that, then?

Odd.

@BRRABill From https://superuser.com/questions/1166219/how-do-i-set-my-local-git-identity --

Setting Your Git Identity

First, your identity should be simply your full name and email address which could be your GitHub username and email combo. But this is not a verification stage as much as a “tag” to identify you; this has nothing to do directly with your GitHub username unless they are indeed one and the same.

BRRABill

BTW, I have never done that, and do not have issues updating.

Or at least, issues that I know of.

BRRABill

Also seems like from more research it is tied to commit transactions.

Why would that be coming up in this instance?

Danp

@BRRABill The git pull command started failling with the following --

error: Your local changes to the following files would be overwritten by merge:
<list of files here>
Please, commit your changes or stash them before you can merge.

So I implemented git stash -u to eliminate the unmerged changes. There may be a better way to accomplish this.

@Danp thanks it solved the issue, it broke my self signed ssl cert though

And I am not sure what caused sudden increase in interest on this topic, my email was blowing up this morning
