Describe the bug
TestGitRepository is currently written to assume that a global user and email has been set in the local git environment. This is inherently fragile as configurations outside the repository shouldn't affect the test environment.
Steps To Reproduce
Try to run TestGitRepositoryTest when no user.name or user.email is set for the machine's local global configuration.
Expected Behavior
TestGitRepository should be robust against global configurations by manually maintaining and setting a repository-local user name and email.
