gitch - Git Identity Manager for VS Code
Never commit with the wrong git identity again.
Features
- Status Bar Identity - See the active profile for the current repository or workspace
- Quick Switch - Click the status bar to switch between identities
- Auto-Switch - Automatically switch identity based on workspace rules
- Mismatch Warnings - Get notified when a profile is unmanaged or only partially applied
Requirements
The extension automatically downloads the gitch CLI on first activation. Alternatively, install via:
# macOS
brew install orzazade/tap/gitch
# Linux / Windows
# Download the appropriate package or archive from GitHub Releases
Usage
- Open a Git repository in VS Code
- Look at the status bar (bottom left) - you'll see your current identity
- Click the status bar to switch identities
- Set up auto-switch rules with
gitch rule add in the terminal
In multi-root workspaces, the extension prefers the active editor's repository and falls back to the first workspace folder when no editor is focused.
Extension Settings
