Thanks for submitting the request! I'm not going to pull in your fixes (so that way the repo keeps the bugs for others working through the tutorial), but it looks like you got everything working! Out of curiosity, what error were you getting through the GUI?

That reply was fast :) I'm starting to see that Git is quite useful. The error was a vague "Failed to create new commit". I quickly made a screenshot: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/44724561/gitError.jpg
Anyway, I'll try again on a different machine later. Thanks for replying.

Yea, no worries. That is an odd bug we keep running into here as well. I think it's some bug in the GUI, but we haven't really been able to track it down yet. Personally, I love the command line, but I know a lot of people around here find the GUI fast and slick. Best of luck as you keep moving forward with this!

Thanks for the wishes. I've now managed to fix the "Failed to create new commit" problem by entering my email address in the options window. (From the main window, "tools" -> "options". I didn't put an address there before, because of the warning that it would be public.) I just thought I'd let you know in case someone else has the same problem. Have a nice week :)

Thanks for the update! I'm sure that information will come in handy for others down the road. Thanks for sharing the info :)
