Yields error:

Author identity unknonwn
*** Please tell me who you are

Run
  git config --global user.email "you@ezample.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.

So:

• Detect if the username is set already. If not, configure the git username
• before running step 7 of the prerequisites,
• Then verify the git username is set already.
• Then run step 7 of the prerequisites.
