Multiple GIT accounts configured on same machine, one with Gerrit and another with GitHub

I have 2 GIT accounts configured on same machine one with Gerrit (Work Account) and another with GitHub(Personal).

I followed the Tutsplus You tube video mentioned in the answers from the below post:

Multiple github accounts on the same computer?

My Work account is already configured and working fine and following the global git config whereas for the personal work I have created a local config file and updated the User name and Email address by following below post:

Git pushing to remote GitHub repository as wrong user

Now when I am trying to commit anything from the personal directory using Git Bash I am getting below error:

ERROR: Commit message is missing Identification: Please append the Identification: and issue ID relative to this commit into the commit message.

I do know that Identification is needed when I commit or push anything to my Gerrit account. So it means this is using or following the Gerrit based account config not my personal work account config(GitHub)

Now how can I use my personal work account linked with Git Hub with out bothering the Gerrit based GIT account?

It looks like you have a post-commit hook set up to reject commits without an issue id, even in your personal work account repository.

Look in the .git/hooks directory for a post-commit (or pre-push) file, and delete it if present.

It may have been placed there by a init.templatedir global configuration -- try running git config --list to check.
