Have you been cloning git repositories left and right? Do you wish to keep them automatically up-to date?
gitman is a cross-platform manager for git repositories, that are located inside a single directory.
Arguments:
-
clone [url: string]: Clones one or more git repositories to the git repository directory. (urls seperated by spaces) Example:gitman clone https://github.com/nirokay/gitman https://github.com/nirokay/nirokay -
pull: Pulls every repository's changes, or only the ones which names are provided. Examples:gitman pull(pulls all repos),gitman pull gitman nirokay(only pulls gitman and nirokay repo) -
help: Displays a help message. -
remove [dir: string]: Removes the specified directory inside the git-repo directory. Can accept mutliple directories to remove. Example:gitman remove nirokay gitman -
list: Lists all git repositories.
Some commands may also have aliases, see help for more information.
There are no configuration files for this program (anymore). You can set a custom git directory by changing the GITMAN_REPOS_LOCATION environment variable.
Example (Linux):
export GITMAN_REPOS_LOCATION="$HOME/Git"Note:
This will only be available for the current session. Consider putting the string above into your profile/shell rc file.
See Changes document.
You will need to have Nim installed, as well as its package-manager nimble.
You can run nimble install gitman to automatically install this program. (SOON!)
You can build this program with nimble build and move the executable in your path. The latter will be done automatically, if you execute nimble install (Verify that the nimble binary directory is in your path!).
Any operating system that is supported by the nim programming language should be supported.
This program was tested on GNU/Linux (Manjaro) and Windows 10 (64 bit).
