ios - Xcode 7 GM can't commit (GIT)

Question

Whenever I try to commit, using source control in Xcode, I get an error that I need to configure my email address and name (it seems to read my email address incorrectly). I went to the Terminal, and entered them (again). The error didn't go away.

I can commit normally in Terminal, but not in Xcode. Is there a way to fix it? Or enter the configuration info directly in Xcode?

This is the error message:

*** Please tell me who you are.

Run

git config --global user.email "you@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: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'myemail@gmail-1040826.(none)')

Here's my .gitconfig (I replaced my actual name with "My Name", and my username with "myname" for privacy reasons):

myname-1040826:Project myname$ git config -l
user.email=myname@gmail.com
user.name=My Name

It looks like Xcode is not reading global GIT settings. If you encounter this issue, set your name and email to the specific project via the Terminal:

git config user.email "you@example.com" 
git config user.name "Your Name"

Note: Make sure you are in the project's directory when you do the above.
