Git and visual studio

Question

When I try to update my information in git settings in Visual Studio 2013, I get the following error:

 An error occurred. Detailed message: An error was raised by libgit2. 
 Category = Config (Error).
 Multivar incompatible with simple set

There are other problems with libgit2, but not configuration related. Any ideas?

Same error, but with Visual Studio 2015 . I used git bashwith this command:

git config --global -l

which showed me I had 2 addresses user.email. This is probably the meaning of "multivariance." After that I entered:

git config --global -e

, ( ) . Visual Studio. git bash, ~/.gitconfig.

Linux, bash, .
