rgit (recursive git)

Program to run git commands in git repos recursively. This is just a convenience function for running git commands in multiple repos. I find it particularly useful in my ROS workspaces (espeicially if I don't want to change my .rosinstall to use wstool up)

Common Usage

rgit takes one argument (the starting directory) and passes all other arguments to the git command. So really any git command should be possible, but some don't make a ton of sense to use recursively. There are a few examples below.

Update all repos in the current directory and belwo with their current upstream branches

rgit . pull

Get status of all repos in the home directory and below

rgit ~ status

Get all commits in all repos from a specific user

rgit . log --committer=<[email protected]>

Installation

  1. Install GNU parallel (e.g. sudo apt-get install parallel)
  2. Copy file rgit executable to /usr/local/bin/rgit and mark it executable sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/rgit

TODO

Make release version that can be installed more easily on distributions
