Change Git user in IntelliJ IDEA

Question

My IntelliJ IDEA was used by another user and when I try to push to Git, I was asked a password of this user.

How can I change user in my IDEA? I tried to change global Git user, but it is not working.

1. Go to the base directory of your project.

2. You will find a hidden directory called ".git". Enter into it.

3. There you will see a file called "config". Add the below code.
   

   [user]       name = username       email = [email protected]
