I have one machine for now that I have to use for both work and personal. Not ideal but works for now. I have created 2 separate ssh keys and have only added my personal key to my personal github. When I start a project I used this to set my creds for the folder:

killall ssh-agent && ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa_jaysnel && git config user.name "myUsername" && git config user.email "myEmail"

Yet somehow my work profiles shows as the one who did the commit. Is there a way to just blacklist my work profile from any commits at all to my account?
