Feature: Switch git account and log out

[ferrariofilippo]

What feature or improvement do you think would benefit Files?

At the moment you can't log out easily of git. You need to open Windows credential manager and then delete the token.
I think we can improve the UX of git adding a git section in the settings, where the user can manage the account they want to use

Requirements

• Add a Git section in settings
• Add a button to Log out
• Add a button to Sign in

Files Version

2.5.21

Windows Version

Windows 11Pro 10.0.22621.1992

Add a Git section in settings

Should this have a separate page?

Add a button to Switch account

Can you be signed into multiple accounts at the same time?

We should use either Advanced page or a new one

I guess we can do it. We might have a popup when there are two or more accounts

If you do add a Settings Page - I have made a Toggle Icon for it

@ferrariofilippo is "Switch account" the same as logging out?

Actually not but it may be confusing. I think it's better to simply log out.
