Couldn't you simply disable smtpEncryption in the .git/config of that one repo? E.g.: [sendemail] smtpEncryption = none You might also want to take a look at "identities" in the manual. And related to that, there's a patch in this old (never merged) series of mine which might be useful since I believe the documentation bug it fixes still exists. Cheers.
