So please try to comment out following line --- a/src/git.cpp +++ b/src/git.cpp @@ -345,7 +345,7 @@ void Git::userInfo(SList info) { info.clear(); info << "Environment" << user << email; - errorReportingEnabled = false; // 'git config' could fail, see docs + //errorReportingEnabled = false; // 'git config' could fail, see docs run("git config user.name", &user); run("git config user.email", &email); run from double click and you probably will see an error message box where git says $HOME is not set (I can reproduce this now). So what I think is that when you run from command line there is the $HOME variable set and command does not fails.
