Meaning of the GitHub message: push declined due to email privacy restrictions

Question

I have accepted and merged a pull request on GitHub, and now I cannot pull my commits any more.

The message is:

! [remote rejected] master -> master (pu         


        

Answer 1

I solved the errors by:

git config --global user.email ""

This just sets my email to blank (an empty string). I now set my email in individual projects with:

git config user.email "myemail@domain.com"
