Open stickycode opened 5 years ago
I would expect something like this
For the case where this is not set
branchout init git@github.com/ExampleOrganisation/example
branchout clone new-project
Please enter your git email: michael@stickycode.net
Please enter your git user: Michael McCallum
Saving settings in ~/branchout/ExampleOrganisation/Branchoutrc
Cloning new
Cloning new-project
Pulled new master
Pulled new-project master
Looking at the settings
cat ~/branchout/ExampleOrganisation/Branchoutrc
We find these values now
GIT_AUTHOR="Michael McCallum"
GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL="michael@stickycode.net"
I agree, this would be a great feature, but unless some of your identities are pseudonyms then it's fine to set your name in your global file and set email on particular repos. I have name set globaly and have had for years, and a script on my path for fred.set.git.email and company.set.git.email and clientX.set.git.email etc depending on the machine and work and scenario etc.
I set name globally too.

We should make this happen. I have some additional ideas about it to share with you, too.
I have many different identities so I cannot set the user.email globally for git it per project.
Having this configured by branchout would be very handy
