I recommend looking that the user manual[1] to start out.  It
has a few relevant hints.

>From the preface:

	Comprehensive reference documentation is available
	through the man pages, or git-help(1) command. For
	example, for the command "git clone <repo>", you can
	either use:

	$ man git-clone

	or:

	$ git help clone

	Before creating any commits, you should introduce
	yourself to git. The easiest way to do so is to make sure
	the following lines appear in a file named .gitconfig in
	your home directory:

	[user]
		name = Your Name Comes Here
		email = you@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

	(See the "CONFIGURATION FILE" section of git-config(1)
	for details on the configuration file.)

Jonathan
