Changing the git user inside Visual Studio Code

Question

The user for my git commits has changed, but I am not able to change that inside of Visual Studio Code.

I changed the global settings in git, but when I want to push

Answer 1

Press Ctrl + Shift + G in Visual Studio Code and go to more and select Show git output. Click Terminal and type git remote -v and verify that the origin branch has latest username in it like:

origin git@github.com:DroidPulkit/Facebook-Chat-Bot.git (fetch)

origin git@github.com:DroidPulkit/Facebook-Chat-Bot.git (push)

Here DroidPulkit is my username.

If the username is not what you wanted it to be then change it with:

git add remote origin git@github.com:newUserName/RepoName.git
