git: Different configuration for different repositories

Question

My git repositories are in ~/Projects folder. Every repository name starts with indicator, if it is personal or work repository:

~/Projects
  |-- personal-repo1
  |-- personal-repo2
  |-- work-repo1
  |-- work-repo2
  |-- work-repo3

According to this answer, I have set my ~/.gitconfig file to use different email for my personal reposiories and for my work repositories like this:

[user]
        email = [email protected]
        name = Jaroslav Bezdek

[includeIf "gitdir:~/Projects/work-*"]
        path = ~/.gitconfig_work

My ~/.gitconfig_work looks like this:

[user]
        email = [email protected]

However, git is still using my personal email address for both personal and work repositories. Please, could you help me with that? What am I missing?

Answer 1

Add a final /:

[includeIf "gitdir:~/Projects/work-*/"]
