Can I add comments to a .netrc file?

I'm using a .netrc file to steamline pushing and pulling code int a git repository. The problem is, I'm using multiple tenants on the same host, with different credentials. I was thinking about commenting out blocs in the .netrc file, depending on which tenant I'm connecting to.

Is this possible?

Thanks!

you could just add a on-purpose error in the host name, so that it doesnt match

No, netrc files do not have comments as alani mentions. You could try to use several netrc files with just one host/tenant config and symlink the one you want to use to $HOME/.netrc.
