### Git User Info
### Git Configuration
Since the gitconfig doesn't contain the user info, I recommend using env variables. Put the following in
your `~/.secrets` file which is automatically referenced by the provided zshrc:
You can customize the standard Git configuration in `~/.gitconfig.user`. Any configuration in this file will override the default configuration.
# Set your git user info
export GIT_AUTHOR_NAME='Your Name'
export GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL='you@domain.com'
export GIT_COMMITTER_NAME='Your Name'
export GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL='you@domain.com'
# Optionally, set your GitHub credentials
export GITHUB_USER='your_user_name'
export GITHUB_TOKEN='your_github_token'
It is recommended to use this file to set your user info. Alternately, you can set the appropriate environment variables in your `~/.secrets`.
