Accepted Answer

I had to change `Host github.com/Company` to `Host github.com-Company` in `ssh/config`. Then, clone like this: `git clone git@github.com-Company:Company/repoName.git`

But, still prefer to have a better solution, instead of changing ssh address / HTTP URL.

Update:

According to this comment: Personal `.gitconfig` for personal/everything else projects:

```
[user]
    name = Dr.jacky
    email = email@personal.com
[core]
    sshCommand = ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa -F /dev/null
```

Work `.gitconfig` for company projects:

```
[user]
    name = Work Name
    email = work@company.com
[core]
    sshCommand = ssh -i ~/.ssh/id_rsa_companyname -F /dev/null
```

And changed the global `.gitconfig` to this:

```
[user]
    name = Dr.jacky
    email = email@personal.com
    signingKey = ""
[includeIf "gitdir:/Users/drjacky/*"]
    path = /Users/drjacky/gitconfigpersonal/.gitconfig
[includeIf "gitdir:/Users/drjacky/Projectz/CompanyName/"]
    path = /Users/drjacky/gitconfigcompanyname/.gitconfig
```
