Git repo specific username, email and ssh private key config #

In some cases, it might be needed to have specific username and email for a particular repo, so as the ssh privatekey. This can be configured by editing the config file under .git directory. Here is an example of .git/config file.

[core]
    ...
    sshCommand = ssh -i /path_to_ssh_private_key
...
[user]
    name = user_name_used_to_commit
    email = user_email_for_commit
