Error in using Kart with QGIS

[fkshuvo]

Hi altruist,

I am having an issue when trying to import a shape file/geopackage data into a repository while using QGIS.
Everytime, it showing the following error:

Kart failed with the following message:
Error: Please tell me who you are.
Run
git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
to set your account's default identity.
Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.
(Kart uses the same credentials and configuration as git)

Can anyone help with the issue please?

best regards,

Faysal

Hi Faysal,

My guess is you installed Kart through the QGIS plugin, and we're not correctly setting up your user details. If you open a command prompt (Windows 10: Start... Windows System.... Command Prompt) then enter the following, substituting in your own name/email:

kart config --global user.name "Your Name"
kart config --global user.email "[email protected]"

These commands setup the name & email for use in Kart repository commit histories. After that I think you'll find it works properly in QGIS.

Please let me know — if this is the case then I'll open a bug to check on the install/configuration.
