Can different .git-credentials files also be loaded conditionally? When one uses https access with multiple accounts....

  You could probably write a custom git credential helper that does that, if it doesn't exist already.

  Do you need multiple files? Since you can store credentials for multipl users and host combinations in the same file.

  I use the technique in article for something similar that solves the same problem. I'll find it on pc in a sec.

  ~/.gitconfig: [credential] credentialStore = secretservice helper = /usr/local/bin/git-credential-libsecret [credential "https://github.com"] username = akdor1154 [includeif "gitdir:~/src/mywork/"] path=~/src/mywork/.gitconfig ~/src/mywork/.gitconfig: [user] email = "12345+akdor1154-mywork@users.noreply.github.com" signingkey = ~/.ssh/id_rsa.mywork.private [credential "https://github.com"] username = akdor1154-mywork The `username` is passed to the global secret helper and is thus used for it as part of the pick/prompt context for password. I'm using the libsecret helper but this works with any.
