A bash function to easily manage using multiple git hub accounts

gitusr

gitusr is a shell script that allows you to easily manage using multiple git hub accounts. The script adds a shell command gitusr. This shell command allows you to change or check the current git hub account with a simple flag. For example, to change to your work email you might type gitusr -w.

(Full feature list below)

Setup

Run the setup.py script and answer the questions. When in the directory containing setup.py, you can run the python script using:

./setup.py

The script will ask you for an email and then a flag to use with that email. It will continue doing this until you type done for an email. Then it will output the shell script to /usr/local/bin/gitusr. This will allow you to use the gitusr command in your shell.

Reconfigure

Run the setup.py script again. This will ask you the same questions and overwrite the existing shell script.

Uninstall

Delete the shell script file. This can be done with the command:

rm /usr/local/bin/gitusr

Features

• Check git email of current repository

  gitusr

  or check global git email

  gitusr -g

• Change the current git email (Assuming you have an email set to use the -w flag)

  gitusr -w

  or change the global git email

  gitusr -g -w

• Display a help message (including set email flags)

  gitusr -h

TODOS

• Allow Setup.py to take command line arguments

System Requirements

The setup script is written in python 3 so you will need python 3.

gitusr's Issues

Doesn't display current email on Ubuntu

When installed and used on an Ubuntu system, using the function without an email flag does not just print the current git email.

This seems to be because the command which the script runs in this case

git config user.email

does not behave as it does on mac osx where it prints the current email.
