With the latest version on Windows it always asks for GitHub credentials and it always comes back with undefined for the git log.

Yo @GeoffCraig...couple things on this. First of all, there was a new release of tag-release pushed out very recently, so you should try updating to that.

Second, and perhaps most important, what protocol are you using for git, SSH or HTTPS? I was originally setup with HTTPS, and had a lot of problems with the Git Credential Manager for Windows actually caching and using my credentials. I reconfigured git to use SSH, and it started actually using the credentials cached in my .gitconfig file, and everything started working just fine. Have you tried anything like that? If not, please do, and let us know if that helps at all.

Thanks Geoff.

I tested this today and the latest version seems to work great. If there are any specific windows issues, we can open a new issue with details and proceed.
