I actually added this to the Git FAQ:
https://git-scm.com/docs/gitfaq#multiple-accounts-ssh.  It was added
because I saw the question a lot online but we never documented how to
do this.

Certainly we might want to improve the documentation (patches welcome),
but I would not honestly say we have bad documentation coverage here.
