I use http://github.com/kbjr/Git.php it work!

require_once('Git.php');  
$repo = Git::open('gitphp');  // -or- Git::create('/path/to/repo')
$repo->run(' config  user.email "your email"'); 
$repo->run(' config  user.name "your username"');   
echo $repo->run(' log -p');

Try configure git commit with author's parameters, it works fine to me:

shell_exec('git -c user.name="www-data" -c user.email="no-replay@example.org" commit -m "commit form php" ');

The errors can be found in the server error file: /var/log/apache2/error.log

cat /var/log/apache2/error.log
