Uncaught (in promise) FirebaseError: Firebase: Error (auth/account-exists-with-different-credential)

I'm building an app with react and firebase, this app contain firebase auth.

The user switch between Google/Github Login.

Google login is working fine, but when I login with github it show me this error:

Uncaught (in promise) FirebaseError: Firebase: Error (auth/account-exists-with-different-credential).
    at createErrorInternal (assert.ts:122:1)
    at _createError (assert.ts:83:1)
    at _makeTaggedError (index.ts:261:1)
    at _performFetchWithErrorHandling (index.ts:146:1)
    at async _performSignInRequest (index.ts:191:1)
    at async _signInWithCredential (credential.ts:37:1)
    at async PopupOperation.onAuthEvent (abstract_popup_redirect_operation.ts:102:1)

My Code:

const googleProvider = new GoogleAuthProvider();
const githubProvider = new GithubAuthProvider();

const [{ user }, dispatch] = useStateValue();

const loginWithGoogle = async () => {
  const {
    user: { refreshToken, providerData },
  } = await signInWithPopup(auth, googleProvider);
  dispatch({
    type: actionType.SET_USER,
    user: providerData[0],
  });
  localStorage.setItem("user", JSON.stringify(providerData[0]));
  setIsOpen(false);
};

const loginWithGithub = async () => {
  const {
    user: { refreshToken, providerData },
  } = await signInWithPopup(auth, githubProvider);
  dispatch({
    type: actionType.SET_USER,
    user: providerData[0],
  });
  localStorage.setItem("user", JSON.stringify(providerData[0]));
  setIsOpen(false);
};

This is (likely) due to the fact that the two accounts share an email address, so Firebase considers them the same user. See this answer for more info. Docs here.
