NAME

       gh-auth-switch - Switch active GitHub account

SYNOPSIS

       gh auth switch [flags]

DESCRIPTION

       Switch the active account for a GitHub host.

       This  command  changes the authentication configuration that will be used when running commands targeting
       the specified GitHub host.

       If the specified host has two accounts, the active account will be switched automatically. If  there  are
       more  than two accounts, disambiguation will be required either through the --user flag or an interactive
       prompt.

       For a list of authenticated accounts you can run gh auth status.

EXAMPLE
