Username not correct in commit

description

My username appears correctly when I commit from Git Bash, or Git Extensions

But when I commit from this SCC provider, the username appears in Git history as "@fe80::9813:dc93:fdd8:9f9%13"

I don't see anywhere to set it.

Do you have name and email configured for git globally or locally for git repository?

I have it configured globally. I do not have it configured for any of my local repositories. I have a LOT of repos and would not want to do this for each one.

It works - Thanks for the fast response!

NOTE: At first it did not work, because I had started VS with the "Run As Administrator". So I think it may have trouble locating the config when run as admin. Not a deal breaker for me but could cause issues for other people.
