Multiple github accounts on the same computer?

Question

Trying to work on my both my actual \"work\" repos, and my personal repos on git hub, from my computer.

The work account was set up first, and everything works flawl

Answer 1

just figured this out for Windows, using credentials for each repo:

cd c:\User1\SomeRepo
git config --local credential.https://github.com.user1 user1
git config --local credential.useHttpPath true
git config --local credential.helper manager
git remote set-url origin https://USERNAME@github.com/USERNAME/PROJECTNAME.git

The format of credential.https://github.com. tells the credential helper the URL for the credential. The 'useHttpPath' tells the credential manager to use the path for the credential. If useHttpPath is omitted then the credential manager will store one credential for https://github.com. If it is included then the credential manager will store multiple credentials, which is what I really wanted.
