How to use commitlint to only allow commits from one email

Question

I have several Github accounts and some of them are for open source repos and I use ssh keys for all of them. I'm constantly swapping workplaces and each time I need to be careful to set git config user.name and git config user.email correctly

We're using CommitLint and Husky

Is there a way to add a rule that doesn't allow you to commit unless your user.email and user.name matches the one I want?

Endgoal is to ensure that all commits, teammates' or mine, are always on the correct user.name/user.email

Answer 1

You can try a conditional include config file, based on, for instance, the path of the repository, in order to include the right config user.name/email setting?

You can see an example in "Is it possible to specify different names and emails per git server (using subconfigs)?".
