Webmatrix 3 not working with Git

Hi,

I have just installed WebMatrix 3 on a new laptop and went to use Git.
WebMatrix then installed Git and created the local repo for my site, however upon initial commit, it asks for my name and email, after which it errors with

"

An error was raised by libgit2. Category = Os (Error).
The global file '.config/git/config' doesn't exist: The system cannot find the path specified.


LibGit2Sharp.LibGit2SharpException: An error was raised by libgit2. Category = Os (Error).

After this WebMatrix errors with
