Why is SourceTree constantly asking me for my "User Information" during a commit?

Been using ST for months. However, as of this morning I cannot commit anything. Clicking Commit puts me in a loop of dealing with this odd dialog box. Entering any info here and clicking OK just puts me back to where I was before I clicked Commit. It's a loop I cannot get beyond, as of today.

What's going on here? Anyone know?

Hi

I'm not sure exactly why this is happening but if you go into Tools/Options/General tab you can enter the same details there and it should then update git and hg configurations when you click OK.

If you do this, potentially by explicitly editing those values to something else, clicking OK and then editing them back and clicking OK again, does that then stop the prompt?

Thanks Michael. I tried playing with those settings a little, but it made no improvement. However, on the bright side, the ability to commit a change (no such weird message appearing) returned last week. All on its own. Weird.

If anyone else comes across this issue, unchecking the global option worked for me

I second unchecking the global option. Worked for me.
