IntelliJ IDEA and Git

Well, I've gotten a basic "Hello, world" Spring Web MVC Application running in JBoss Wildfly 8.2.0.Final set up with the initial Git Repo from OpenShift.

Now, I'm trying to do my first commit.  I've worked with Git through the Git Bash (msysgit), along with TortoiseGit and through Visual Studio / Git integration.

Even cloned, pushed, fetched to/from GitHub through these tools for .NET Projects.

However, this is my first experience using Git through IntelliJ IDEA on a pure Java project.

Initial take: for some reason IntelliJ is *not* picking up my user.name and user.email from the Global Git configuration.

From my Git Bash:

$ git config --list
core.symlinks=false
core.autocrlf=true
color.diff=auto
color.status=auto
color.branch=auto
color.interactive=true
pack.packsizelimit=2g
help.format=html
http.sslcainfo=/bin/curl-ca-bundle.crt
sendemail.smtpserver=/bin/msmtp.exe
diff.astextplain.textconv=astextplain
rebase.autosquash=true
user.name=Philip Tenn
user.email=ptenn@users.noreply.github.com

What I am seeing on the VCS commit window in IntelliJ:

I could (and did) manually type into this ComboBox my name and .  Just seemed strange it did not pick up from my Git config.
