Hey there. I'm using Git for windows (The msysgit project). And working with the GIT Bash. I'm also pushing my programmed stuff to gitHub. The problem is that my gitHub's user name contains a "č" character and the GIT Bash won't let me type that in. Is there a way of setting my --global user.name within my GIT settings to contain that "č" character?
Thanks.
git config --edit
will open your gitconfig [1] in an editor, you can set it by hand there.
[1] you can also specify these flags to edit the other gitconfigs available, quoted from git-config(1):
--system, --global or --file which specify where the values will be read from or written to. The default is to assume the config file of the current repository, .git/config unless defined otherwise with GIT_DIR and GIT_CONFIG
You can edit the C:\*username*\.gitconfig file in your text editor
