Multiple Git Identities
Easily manage multiple Git identities (user.name & user.email) across different repositories!
Do you work with multiple Git accounts (e.g., personal, work, freelance) and struggle with switching identities? This script helps you maintain different Git configurations per repository without manual changes.
🔧 How It Works
- Automatically detects the repository’s remote URL (GitHub, GitLab, etc.).
- Matches the URL against predefined identity rules in
~/.gitconfig. - Sets the correct
user.nameanduser.emailfor that repository.
No more accidental commits with the wrong email!
🚀 Configuration
Define your identities in ~/.gitconfig (example in git repo).
And follow this repo for steps:
git clone https://github.com/navinku/MultipleGitIdentities.git
cd MultipleGitIdentities
✅ Usage
Once installed, every git commit in any repository will automatically use the correct identity.
