Similar to most other posters, I have a dotfiles repo, most of it isn't particularly novel, but I have a light wrapper around `git` that after a successful clone, will add custom identity information to `.git/config` so when I commit, I won't inadvertently use my work author string vs my personal author string:
https://github.com/dom111/dotfiles/blob/master/bin/git
which when combined with files like:
```
    $cat ~/.gitidentities/github.com
```

Here's my dotfiles repository [1], which is used to sync my little scripts and config files between my different systems (Mac/Linux). I first heard about it here [2].
