How To Work With Multiple Github Accounts on a single Machine

Let suppose I have two github accounts, https://github.com/rahul-office and https://github.com/rahul-personal. Now i want to setup my mac to easily talk to both the github accounts.

NOTE: This logic can be extended to more than two accounts also. :)

The setup can be done in 5 easy steps:

Steps:

Step 1 : Create SSH keys for all accounts
Step 2 : Add SSH keys to SSH Agent

Multiple SSH Keys settings for different github account

create different public key

create different ssh key according the article Mac Set-Up Git

$ ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "[email protected]"

	" Important things for beginners:
	" * Start out small... Don't jam your vimrc full of things you're not ready to
	" immediately use.
	" * Read other people's vimrc's.
	" * Use a plugin manager for christ's sake! (I highly recommend vundle)
	" * Spend time configuring your editor... It's important. Its the tool you
