I think that you could achieve that by cloning in 2 different directories. One called bitbucket and one github.

And then using .gitconfig cnditional include to load either the github config or the bitbucket one.

See .gitconfig include documentation

You cannot set up two different emails at a global level, but yes you can have it at a repository level.

From the command line, change into the repository directory and set your email address as:

git config user.email "[email protected]"

Verify your configuration by displaying your configuration file:

cat .git/config
