v0.2.1

git-found makes Git use the right GitHub account for each repo when you're signed in to more than one in the GitHub CLI.

Install:

brew install advaith334/tap/git-found
git-credential-found setup

Changes since 0.2.0: a clearer demo and README, nothing else. The script is unchanged apart from the version number.

What 0.2.x does:

  • Picks the account that can reach each repo (preferring push access) and remembers it for a day. It never changes your active gh account.
  • doctor checks why a repo still fails: SSH remotes, tokens stuck in the URL, expired logins, another credential helper answering first.
  • Tells you when an org's single sign-on is blocking the right account, with the link to approve the token.
  • git config found.account <login> pins a repo to one account.
  • setup covers github.com and any GitHub Enterprise host you're signed in to.
  • Works from GUI Git apps as well as the terminal.

Tested on macOS and Ubuntu.

v0.2.0

Stop remote: Repository not found when you have several GitHub accounts. git-found is a Git credential helper that asks the GitHub API which of your gh accounts can reach each repo, and hands Git that account's token.

Install

brew install advaith334/tap/git-found
git-credential-found setup

Or without Homebrew:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/advaith334/git-found/v0.2.0/install.sh | GIT_FOUND_REF=v0.2.0 sh

What's in it

  • Picks the right account per repo: prefers one that can push, remembers the choice for a day, and never touches your active gh account.
  • doctor explains why a repo still fails: SSH remotes, tokens baked into URLs, expired logins, another credential helper answering first.
  • Single sign-on detection: if an org's SSO blocks the right account, git-found prints the link to approve its token.
  • Per-repo pins: git config found.account <login>.
  • Every host at once: setup covers github.com and any GitHub Enterprise host you're signed in to.
  • Works from GUI Git apps (GitHub Desktop, IntelliJ), not just the terminal.

Tested on macOS and Ubuntu.
