# Git-Identity switcher
This VS Code extension adds a button to easily switch between different Git authors.
## Features
If multiple people are sharing a single operating system user account and are working on the same Git repository, it is hard to keep track of their individual contributions.
For such cases this extension adds a button to the VS Code status bar displaying the currently set author. You can change it by clicking on the status bar item.
## Extension Settings
This extension contributes the following settings:
- `git-identity.authors`: available Git authors (each array entry should be of the form 'John Doe john@doe.com')
- `git-identity.showEmail`: When to display the email address of the current author in the status bar.
`always`, `never`, or `for identical names` when the currently active author has multiple profiles with the same name but different email addresses (default)
## Release Notes
### [1.2.0] - 2024-04-18
- Added a setting for whether to show the email address (thanks to Wesztman!)
### [1.1.2] - 2024-04-15
- In case the currently selected author has multiple profiles, also show the email address
- The extension also activates, if a `.gitignore` file is present in the workspace.
### 1.0.0
