> "John Smith"

$ git config --global user.email 
> "johnsmith@example.com"

if you have configured multiple git users in your machine
$ git config --global user.name ### It will give name of git user who is globaly scoped
$ git config user.name ### It will give name of git user who has scope with respect to current repository

How to check the current git user

To know the username, type:

git config user.name

To know the email, type:

git config user.email

Check git username

Just use --local instead of --global. In fact, local is the default so you can just do

git config --local user.email personal@example.org
git config --local user.name "whatf hobbyist"

in one repo, and

git config --local user.email work@example.com
git config --local user.name "whatf at work"

in another
