Multiple git identities on one machine: config per folder and per provider (personal vs work). Every command verified.

Multiple git identities on one machine

TL;DR

One machine, several git identities: typically personal vs work, GitHub vs GitLab, or two accounts on the same provider. This setup makes every repository pick the right name, email, and keys on its own, so no work commit ever goes out under your personal address (or the reverse). In a hurry: run the Appendix B script once per identity.
