Hmm I think it only occurs if you git clone the repo before adding the
identity to your global config.

If you clone the repository after having added your identity everything
is fine..

/ksa > git fetch origin
fatal: You don't exist. Go away!

~/.gitconfig:
[user]
        name = sadflkj-sa
        email = info@dflkje.de

The repo config is unchanged  after cloning.
The HEAD pointer is invalid. But this shouldn't matter

Sincerly
