$ git project pivots
This script sets the user account you will use to access repos hosted on github.com. It creates a symlink from id_github_current
to id_github_pivotal<project>
, which switches the SSH key you are currently using to access GitHub repos. Make sure you have the following lines in your .ssh/config file:
Host github.com
User git
IdentityFile /Users/pivotal/.ssh/id_github_current
