Gitu is a tiny script for managing multiple git names/emails. It moves git config --global user.name NAME and git config --global user.email EMAIL to a quick, easy command. Profiles (sets of names and emails) are stored in a yaml file at ~/.git_users.yml.
- *nix operating system (Mac OS X or Linux)
- Ruby 2.0.0 or greater
./gitu should be placed in /usr/local/bin/ so it can be executed with gitu. Use curl or wget for easiest installation. ~/.git_users.yml is automatically generated if it doesn't exist the first time any gitu command is run.
curl -o /usr/local/bin/gitu https://raw.githubusercontent.com/net/gitu/master/gitu && chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/gitu
wget -P /usr/local/bin https://raw.githubusercontent.com/net/gitu/master/gitu && chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/gitu
Profiles are named sets of names and emails. Example:
github:
name: net
email: [email protected]
bitbucket:
name: net
email: [email protected]gitu [profile] sets the git global name and email. For example gitu github would set the global name and email to the name/email defined under github in ~/.git_users.yml
gitu shows the current profile.
gitu -s [profile] sets the profile for the current repository. This adds the name/email to .git/config so it stays in effect even after you leave the repository.
gitu + [profile name] [name] [email] adds a profile. Profiles can also be added directly in ~/.git_users.yml.
gitu - [profile name] removes a profile. Profiles can also be removed directly in ~/.git_users.yml.
gitu -v returns the current version.
