           Summary: git-annex inoperable because git user.email config
                    variable ignored
           Product: Fedora
           Version: 19
         Component: git-annex
          Severity: high
          Priority: unspecified
          Assignee: mathstuf(a)gmail.com
          Reporter: sdeasey(a)gmail.com
        QA Contact: extras-qa(a)fedoraproject.org
                CC: haskell-devel(a)lists.fedoraproject.org,
                    mathstuf(a)gmail.com

Description of problem:

git annex can't read the user.email variable from ~/.gitconfig even though it
exists, and refuses to operate.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

git-annex-3.20121009-3.fc19.x86_64
git-1.8.3.1-1.fc19.x86_64


How reproducible:

Always.


Steps to Reproduce:

$ mkdir test1

$ cd test1

$ git init
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/jo/test1/.git/

$ git annex init
init  
*** Please tell me who you are.

Run

  git config --global user.email "you(a)example.com"
  git config --global user.name "Your Name"

to set your account's default identity.
Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.

fatal: empty ident name (for <jo(a)machine.(none)>) not allowed

git-annex: user error (git
["--git-dir=/home/jo/test1/.git","--work-tree=/home/jo/test1","commit-tree","4b825dc642cb6eb9a060e54bf8d69288fbee4904"]
exited 128)
failed
git-annex: init: 1 failed

$ git config --global user.name Jo
$ git config --global user.email jo(a)example.com

$ cat ~/.gitconfig
[user]
    name = Jo
    email = jo(a)example.com

$ git config --global user.email
jo(a)example.com

$ git config user.email
jo(a)example.com

$ git annex init
init  
*** Please tell me who you are.

Run

  git config --global user.email &quot;you(a)example.com&quot;
  git config --global user.name "Your Name"

to set your account's default identity.
Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.

fatal: empty ident name (for <jo(a)yo.(none)>) not allowed

git-annex: user error (git
["--git-dir=/home/jo/test1/.git","--work-tree=/home/jo/test1","commit-tree","4b825dc642cb6eb9a060e54bf8d69288fbee4904"]
exited 128)
failed
git-annex: init: 1 failed


Actual results:

git-annex: init: 1 failed


Expected results:

The annex repo should be initialised with the settings from ~/.gitconfig


Additional info:

env | grep GIT
<nothing>

Tested with a fresh user account.

--- Comment #1 from Stephen <sdeasey(a)gmail.com&gt; ---
I downloaded the pre-built binary from:

 
http://downloads.kitenet.net/git-annex/linux/current/git-annex-standalone...

dated 2013-07-09 and 'git annex init' works fine:

$ git annex init
init  ok
(Recording state in git...)

I don't know whether this means that this is a packaging bug or an annex bug
which has already been fixed upstream.

I tried:

  sudo yum update --enablerepo=updates-testing git-annex

but there's nothing pending.

--- Comment #2 from Dominic Cleal <dcleal(a)redhat.com&gt; ---
Confirmed that the newer version fixes this issue, perhaps an incompatibility
with a newer version of git.  I rebuilt git-annex-3.20130207-1 from F20 on F19
and "git annex init" now works.
