mgit

Multi-git is a quick tool that could easily have been created with some shell scripts, but it's a nice project to tackle a part of my daily workflow. It performs git actions on multiple directories within the current tree.

It will:

• walk the directory tree;
• traverse and find all git projects;
• perform git with all the arguments you passed to mgit.
• collect output per directory;
• outputting thread-safe in the main thread;

It can even be tweaked with the environment variable MGIT_PARALLEL (defaulting to number of cpus times 8).

Examples

Keeping your indices up-to-date:

$ mgit fetch

Keeping your code up to date (if no conflicts):

$ mgit pull --ff-only

Keeping your code up to date, rebasing and using autostash:

$ mgit pull --rebase --autostash

Output

Per (found) git repository, the output will show:

• The path of the repository on disk.
• The output for the git action on that repository.

As a summary it will show some statistics:

Success: 110, Warnings: 3

Roadmap / ideas

• Use async.
• Benchmark (and optimize?).
