Logout and login as another user git bash

Question

I want to logout from Git bash and login it again as another user .

I have googled but can\'t find any solution.

Answer 1

You don't have to "logout" or "login": regarding git, who you are is determined by:

git config user.name
git config user.email

Change those two settings while being in a repo, and you are someone else, when it comes to creating commits.

That has nothing to do with git remote -v, that is with the user account you will use to push to the upstream repo.

• for an https url, you can simply specify a new user
• for ssh, you would need a ~/.ssh/config file referring to multiple private ssh keys (also described here).
