Gitsu: User management and pairing for Git :: Pairing

Pairing with Gitsu

Switch to two users

First, add some users:

$ git su --add 'Raphe Rackstraw <rrack@example.com>'
User 'Raphe Rackstraw <rrack@example.com>' added to users
$ git su --add 'Joseph Porter KCB <joe@example.com>'
User 'Joseph Porter KCB <joe@example.com>' added to users

Then, switch to them:

$ git su joe rack
Switched local user to 'Joseph Porter KCB and Raphe Rackstraw <dev+joe+rrack@example.com>'

Switch to multiple users

If you need to switch to more than two users at once:

$ git su --add 'Josephine Corcoran <jc@example.com>'
User 'Josephine Corcoran <jc@example.com>' added to users
$ git su joe rack jc
Switched local user to 'Joseph Porter KCB, Josephine Corcoran and Raphe Rackstraw <dev+joe+jc+rrack@example.com>'

Configure group email

You can change the group email that Gitsu uses when combining your users' email addresses, via a config entry

$ git config --global gitsu.groupEmailAddress 'web@example.org'
$ git su rack jc
Switched local user to 'Josephine Corcoran and Raphe Rackstraw <web+joe+jc+rrack@example.org>'
