Basically, I entered:
git config --global use.name "My name"
Notice I wrote "use.name" instead of "user.name." But now that field is there, so I was wondering how to delete it.

The global git config is simply a text file, so it can be edited with whatever text editor you choose. Open, edit global git config, save and close, and the changes will take effect the next time you issue a git command. It's that easy.
Go to Windows Credential Manager , open the Windows Credentials tab, locate git:https://github.com , open the entry, and click Remove . This will remove your GitHub credentials from the credential manager.
The system level configuration file lives in a gitconfig file off the system root path. $(prefix)/etc/gitconfig on unix systems. On windows this file can be found at C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Git\config on Windows XP, and in C:\ProgramData\Git\config on Windows Vista and newer.
You can remove it by using the --unset option of git config:
git config --global --unset use.name
See the documentation for more details.
