Gitlabhq will not work, when default user info for git is not set
Created by: mlitwiniuk
Even after successful install gitlabhq will not work properly for... "unknown" reason. It's because there MUST be user info set for it, without doing that git will refuse to commit changes. Of course it's not a bug, but this should be pointed out in some visible place - I've lost last few hours figuring that out.

Gitlabhq is fully functional, ie allos one to add keys without any problem, but it has no effect on git repositories. It's because git refuses to commit internal changes, when user info is not set. Here's sample git output:
*** 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: empty ident user@localhost.pl not allowed Everything up-to-date => ["/tmp/gitlabhq-gitolite-1323883762"]

I've added these as additional commands in the ubuntu_packages.sh script file in the pull request #6 for the installer scripts at https://github.com/gitlabhq/gitlabhq_install/pull/6
