The receipts — real demand
“It would be great to be able to manage multiple git credentials in the options. Additionally it'd be nice to set an git credential override for each repository. Otherwise when a user works with personal and work related accounts they always have to change between the accounts. ”

Why this is a gap
Surfaced from a high-intensity complaint with clear willingness to pay and a specific, reachable audience.
The market
Developers switching between personal and work repos (agencies, consultancies, side projects) face friction, but no search volume data means this pain is being solved ad-hoc rather than searched for systematically.
Competition & the opening
Git credential helpers (native OS), 1Password, LastPass, and GitHub's built-in credential cache all handle multiple credentials. The gap is per-repo overrides and seamless context switching without CLI configuration.
What's hard to build
Intercepting Git's credential flow securely across Windows, macOS, and Linux requires OS-level hooks and careful permission handling. Hard part: staying compatible with Git's async credential fetching and not breaking SSH key workflows or two-factor authentication.
Why now
Developers juggling multiple GitHub/GitLab accounts (personal, work, client) lack native tooling beyond git config, forcing manual SSH key swapping or credential store hacks.
