git-profile

Easily switch the config on a git repo between multiple git profiles (work, github-public, private projects).

Installation

npm install -g git-profile
# setup configuration in ~/.gitprofiles
git-profile

Configuration

git-profile uses ~/.gitprofiles to set various git config options. The file is assumed to be contain JSON.
For each profile, it expects a set of key value pairs. It basically runs 'git config key value'.
If the profile name is 'global', the equivalent command run is 'git config --global key value'

While the profile file is intended to store commonly changing git repo configs like name/email,
other git config settings should work.

$ cat ~/.gitprofiles
{
"work": {
"user.name": "John Doe",
"user.email": "john@company.com",
"core.editor": "intellij"
},
"github": {
"user.name": "jdoe",
"user.email": "john@gmail.com",
"core.editor": "atom"
}
}
