    In the Cloudron terminal, after authenticating over https, I have had no trouble with

    git pull
    

    But I have not had success with

    git commit
    git push
    

    Git requires that I identify who I am in order to commit (and therefore push). But the Cloudron terminal won't let me do that. I think that where Git wants to write my credentials is read only.

      I figured it out.

      Git's inline help, upon not knowing who you are, makes the suggestions:

      git config --global user.email <email>
      git config --global user.name <name>

      Cloudron's problem is "--global". It has no problem with setting the user.name and user.email for a particular /app.

      So this solved my problem:

      git config user.email <email>
      git config user.name <name>

      of course substituting my email address for "<email>" and my name for "<name>".
