Versions:
git-swap is a command-line utility developed and published by jokot, currently available in version 1.0.0, which is the first and only release listed in the catalog to date. The software serves a focused and practical purpose: it enables developers to switch quickly between multiple git accounts across multiple code-hosting hubs, addressing a common workflow challenge faced by programmers who maintain separate identities for different projects, organizations, or platforms. Rather than manually editing git configuration files or repeatedly adjusting credentials, users can rely on git-swap to streamline the process of moving between accounts, reducing friction and the risk of committing code under the wrong identity. Typical use cases include developers who maintain both personal and professional repositories, consultants who contribute to repositories owned by multiple clients, and open-source contributors who operate distinct accounts on more than one hosting service. Because it operates across multiple hubs rather than being tied to a single platform, git-swap is suited to heterogeneous development environments where repositories are distributed across different providers. Within the software catalog, git-swap falls into the developer tools category, and more specifically into version control utilities that complement git-based workflows. Its narrow scope and single-purpose design position it as a lightweight companion tool rather than a full development environment or hosting client. With version 1.0.0 representing its initial public release, the project is at an early stage, and there are currently no additional versions, prior releases, or updates documented. Users evaluating git-swap should therefore consider it a first-generation tool whose feature set reflects its initial release scope.
