@shanmydell I believe it got recently updated as part of #967. Can you confirm everything is fine?

As for the error, it could be caused by your Git client not being fully configured. It should work if you configure your username and email in Git:

git config --global user.name "Your Name"
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
