Using Multiple Author Identities with Git

Re:Using Multiple Author Identities with Git by tomyws on Wednesday February 15, 2017 @05:24PM (#13655941)

I only recently discovered the local "current repository" configuration option, but I still need to verify which identity I'm using before a commit.

It makes sense not to set the global config at all if you're paranoid. This ensures you have to setup the user.name and user.email locally.

There is also extremely useful option user.useConfigOnly, it was added recently though. Before 2.8 (iirc) you had to use weird hack "git config --global user.email '(none)'"
