User of multiple git accounts, in order to meet my need to switch regularly between these accounts (student, professional, personal), I developed an open source cli (a command line interface) in Golang.
This program helps switch between different git user accounts easily.
It automates the following commands:
git config --global user.name "yourUsername"
git config --global user.email "yourEmail"
There is currently 3 modes in this script:
- 💻 work : for a work related git account.
- 📚 school : for a school related git account.
- 🏠 personal : for a personal related git account.
brew tap lucasnevespereira/tools
brew install gituser
or
brew install lucasnevespereira/tools/gituser
Make sur your bin path is in your $PATH, you can check in your .zshrc or .bash file.
e.g
export PATH="$HOME/bin:$PATH"Run the following command from the root of the project:
make install
This will build gituser and move it to your $HOME/bin
Now you can call gituser globally 😀
Run the following command :
gituser setup
This command will help you setup your different git accounts.
Call executable with mode
gituser <mode>
Examples:
gituser work
gituser school
gituser personal
