This is a Git(Hub) multirepo maintenance tool, designed specifically for Divvun. But it should be quite useful to others needing to maintain tens (or hundreds) of similarly structured github repositories.
Using the gut apply -s <script> command, one can in practice run any git command on all repos (or a suitable subset, regex-selected on the repo names), not only the commands directly provided by gut.
We think it's pretty cool.
- get Rust
- clone this repo:
git clone https://github.com/divvun/gut.git cd gutcargo install --path .
Alternatively - download a precompiled binary from nightly builds:
Extract the archive, and move the binary to somewhere on your $PATH.
- make a personal access token in GitHub - allow everything. Make sure to store it in a safe place - the token replaces your username and password when accessing GitHub via
gut. - run
gut init -r <root-dir> -t <token>
<token> is the token created in step 1. above.
The <root-dir> is the directory where you want to store all repos processed by gut.
Below the <root-dir> dir, there will be one directory for every organisation you interact with, and within the organisation directory all repos are stored.
To use the git/ssh protocol, you need to set up an ssh key for GitHub. Follow these instructions.
NB! Please note that this is a potentially very powerful tool. Some commands require organisation owner permissions, and the most dangerous ones will require an explicit confirmation. If you get an error that the operation is not permitted, you probably do not have sufficient access to the repos involved.
There are some usage instructions under development.
Then there are some use cases with example commands here.
There is also some rudimentary help text. Run gut --help to get an overview.
In version 0.1.0 it reads:
$ gut --help
