Having different Git profiles in the same window

8 votes

Currently, the tabs belong to a one-single Git profile.

Switching between the profiles open and close the Gitkraken-Window, it would be more convenient if tab 1 belongs to Git profile 1 and tab 2 belongs to Git profile 2.

This is very useful if have to work on different platforms like GitHub and self-hosted GitLab and you have constantly switch between the Git profiles.

Thx

I would go a step further and suggest that profiles should be repository specific. I often work in different contexts on different projects, some open-source, some proprietary, each with different emails and settings. I use repository-local .git/config files to manage that at the command line, but GitKraken's implementation of profiles **outside** of the normal git ecosystem means I have to either duplicate effort (switching profiles) or disable profile switching entirely.

Don't re-invent the wheel - use repository-local .git/config settings!
