Hope this helps! :) First, per user Git configuration doesn't necessarily go into ~/.gitconfig; it could be in ~/.config/git/config Second, you can configure user.email and user.name with `git config` or `git config --local`. The information would go into .git/config for specific repository. This might be a better solution if you want different settings for different repositories. -- Jakub Narębski
