Thanks for the tips.  It now works again.

MacPorts automatically switches to the user owning the top-level ports
tree directory to run the 'git pull'. Make sure this directory belongs
to your user or apply the appropriate configuration to the owner
(probably root?).

Hi,

Mostly likely because the global settings are under your home area, whilst the 
checkout below is not.

Just go to  /opt/macports/macports-ports and set the local settings for that 
area as well.

Or, move your ports checkout to somewhere in your home area.

git stash problem with `port sync'

[Werner LEMBERG]

Folks,


after doing various network hacks, calling `port -d sync' now fails.

  --->  Updating the ports tree
  Synchronizing local ports tree from file:///opt/macports/macports-ports
  DEBUG: /opt/local/bin/git pull --rebase --autostash
  DEBUG: system -W /opt/macports/macports-ports: /opt/local/bin/git pull 
--rebase --autostash

  *** Please tell me who you are.

  Run

git config --global user.email "y...@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 '...@...')
  Cannot save the current index state
  Cannot autostash
  Command failed: /opt/local/bin/git pull --rebase --autostash
  Exit code: 1

Note that I already have set user name and e-mail adress globally, but
the error persists.  Manually calling `git stash' works also just fine.

Any ideas how to solve this?
