I'm trying to get the result after executing the git command function !git config --global user.name which outputs my username in the command prompt of my MATLAB.
Now if I assign the same to a variable to use it in another instance I'm getting the below error as shown below.
userName = !git config --global user.name
Error : Parse error at !git config --global user.name : Usage might be invalid MATLAB syntax
disp(userName);

You will need something like
[~, out.git_hash] = system('git rev-parse --verify HEAD');
[~, out.git_status] = system('git --no-pager diff --no-color');
etc.
On Windows, depending on different options during setup, you may need to supply the full path to the git binary, e.g.
[~, out.git_hash] = system('"C:/Program Files/Git/mingw64/bin/git" rev-parse --verify HEAD');
[~, out.git_status] = system('"C:/Program Files/Git/mingw64/bin/git" --no-pager diff --no-color');
