No, your user.name does not matter.
Open your terminal and navigate to your git repository. Change Git user name by running: git config --global user.name “Your Name” Change Git user email by running: git config --global user. email “[email protected]”
For just one repo:
git config user.name "Your Name Here"
git config user.email [email protected]
For (global) default email (which is configured in your ~/.gitconfig):
git config --global user.name "Your Name Here"
git config --global user.email [email protected]
You can confirm that by printing on the terminal:
git config --global user.name
git config user.name
I generally tend to keep diff name/email for my company project and personal project(on github)
Run below command in the git repo where you need to specify the user/email
git config user.name <user-name>
git config user.email <user-email>
