Based on git-autoconfig from shyykoserhiy. Somewhat the opposite usage from git-autoconfig as this extension is for multiple users on the same computer (same log-in) to allow different commit user/emails. The configuration is set globally so it does not persist with the local repository. Multiple users share the same repository.
This extension allows easy switching between user.name / user.email pairs that are configured in the --global space of the git environment. This is useful in shared computer situations where a single log-in is shared with multiple programmers (such as in a school setting).
- Automatically unsets user.name and user.email on VSCode startup (can be disabled).
- User can select from previously used user.name / user.email combinations.
- Optionally generates noreply email based on user.name
- Adds a
Git Usersubmenu to the Source Control ellipsis menu for quick access to commands.
This extension adds the following settings:
git-multiuser.useNoreplyEmail: Automatically generate the 'user@users.noreply.github.com' email from the given username.git-multiuser.unsetUserEmailOnStartup: Clear the user.name and user.email git configs on VSCode startup.git-multiuser.userEmailConfigList: Saved list of user / email pairs that can be chosen from.
