- Subject: GIT problem
I am unable to run my gdb_tester.sh
script anymore.
This is the problem I get:
muller@gcc16:~/auto-test-gdb/gdb$ git pull

fatal: empty ident <muller@gcc16.(none)> not allowed
I have no write access to GIT repository and only
use it for reading... This should work normally, no?
What should I put into the variables
GIT_AUTHOR_NAME and GIT_COMMITTER_NAME?
