You'll need to completely change the Github account credentials for IntelliJ.
- Go into your Settings with Ctrl+Alt+S.
- Go to
Version Control > Github - Edit your credentials.
As you noted in the comments to your question, you need to change the Author Name as well.

Bensson over 6 yearsNo, This issue related to Intellij idea, Actually I done some change in command line. Intellij idea still use the old account. -
Harmelodic over 6 yearsAs I said, IntelliJ doesn't support multiple account management, you'll have to login to a different account through
Settings > Version Control > Githubto change to a different Github account. I was implying that you perform yourgit commits andgit pushes via command line whilst managing multiple accounts on the same computer.
