I currently have GPG signing setup on my computer it works fine. This is required to commit to the repo of the company i work for using my company email address.

How ever I also contribute to a number of open source repos under my own personal git account using my personal email address.

The problem is that when ever i commit anything it wants to commit as my work account and not as my personal account and it pops up with the GPG signing window asking for my password.

I managed to get it to stop using this.

git -c commit.gpgsign=false commit

How ever i am looking for a permanent way of turning GPG sign off for different repos. I have already set them up to use my email in those repos but i haven't been able to figure out how to get the GPG to stop for those repos.

How to disable GPG signing per repo

For setting the configuration per repository you can run the command below in each local repository you want GPG signing to be disabled ,

git config --local commit.gpgsign false

or

git config commit.gpgsign false

From git docs,

--local

For writing options: write to the repository .git/config file. This is the default behavior.
