git config from UCLH DataScienceDesktop

[andysouth]

I want to be able to git config from DataScienceDesktop initially for me to help developing these training resources in RStudio. Later to be able recommend fellows how to do.

I get this error, I assume because I don't have permission to write the config file.

Suggestions welcome. Thanks.
