I’ve ran into a problem recently while deploying my HEXO blog to GitHub.

Problem Description

First, I have two GitHub account, and I want to push one blog folder to one account and another folder to another account.

But somehow, I can’t deploy it because it use my number 1 account for number two folder.

I’ve already add ssh-key to the second GitHub account.

Tried methods

change the local git account

1 2	git config --local user.name "hexo-theme-last" git config --local user.email "xxx@xxx.com"

change the global git account

1 2	git config --global user.name "hexo-theme-last" git config --global user.email "xxx@xxx.com"

Set the email and user in _config.yml file in blog root directory.

deploy:
  type: git
  repo: git@github.com:hexo-theme-last/hexo-theme-last.github.io.git
  branch: master
  name: hexo-theme-last
  email: 2061026079@qq.com

deploy with pamaraters

1	hexo d -u hexo-theme-last -e xxx@xx.com

The weird things is that no matter how I change, it will still use my first account to deploy.

And then I test the ssh connection, create a config file in .ssh directory

Host github2
HostName github.com
User git
IdentityFile /home/o_oyao/.ssh/id_rsa_last

Host o_oyao
HostName github.com
User git
IdentityFile /home/o_oyao/.ssh/id_rsa

And then I run this command, it works well.

1 2	$ ssh -T github2 Hi hexo-theme-last! You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not provide shell access.

But if I run this, it will use the first account ssh as default.

1 2	$ ssh -T git@github.com Hi DyingDown! You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not provide shell access.

Solution

Because I want to test whether is only hexo using old account or git using old account, I pushed the original code to the second GitHub account(hexo-theme-last).

Then I realize it need a personal access token

Finally, I solve this problem by using personal access token in hexo _config.yml file.

deploy:
  type: git
  repo: https://my-personal-access-token/github.com/hexo-theme-last/hexo-theme-last.github.io.git
  branch: master
  name: hexo-theme-last
  email: xxx@xx.com
