First, I only see what's in my screenshot, can't find the "Print on job summary page" and "Create file" sections. Then I got the error shown below. Can anyone show me how to properly set parameters in this plugin?

When you add a "Post Build Step" you can choose "Git Changelog" and/or "Git Publisher". You should pick "Git Changelog".
