A simple way to change the user of a git repository. Under the hood it executes:
git config user.name <name>
git config user.email <email>
In order to install, just run the following command
cargo install --force git-user
This will install git-user in your ~/.cargo/bin (or Windows: %USERPROFILE%\.cargo\bin).
Make sure to add the ~/.cargo/bin (or Windows: %USERPROFILE%\.cargo\bin) directory to your PATH variable.
