Often git user that I use on my machine is related with the company that I am working for. Sometimes I need to access my personal repositories to get some useful code, snipped or component that I can use. Sometimes during this process I modify something in that component and I want to push it to github as me and not as a different git user. Important part is to set local git preferences for the project; following commands are useful:
git config -l
list all the config for git
git config -l --local
list config that is specific for given project
git config -l --global
list global configuration
Edit local config, set github username and email address to the one that is used in github.
git config -e --local
Set following fields:
[user]
email = foobar@gmail.com
name = FirstName LastName
