1 | git-for-each-repo(1) |
| 2 | ==================== | |
| 3 | ||
| 4 | NAME | |
| 5 | ---- | |
| 6 | git-for-each-repo - Run a Git command on a list of repositories | |
| 7 | ||
| 8 | ||
| 9 | SYNOPSIS | |
| 10 | -------- | |
| 11 | [verse] | |
| 12 | 'git for-each-repo' --config=<config> [--] <arguments> | |
| 13 | ||
| 14 | ||
| 15 | DESCRIPTION | |
| 16 | ----------- | |
| 17 | Run a Git command on a list of repositories. The arguments after the | |
| 18 | known options or `--` indicator are used as the arguments for the Git | |
| 19 | subprocess. | |
| 20 | ||
| 21 | THIS COMMAND IS EXPERIMENTAL. THE BEHAVIOR MAY CHANGE. | |
| 22 | ||
| 23 | For example, we could run maintenance on each of a list of repositories | |
| 24 | stored in a `maintenance.repo` config variable using | |
| 25 | ||
| 26 | ------------- | |
| 27 | git for-each-repo --config=maintenance.repo maintenance run | |
| 28 | ------------- | |
| 29 | ||
| 30 | This will run `git -C <repo> maintenance run` for each value `<repo>` | |
| 31 | in the multi-valued config variable `maintenance.repo`. | |
| 32 | ||
| 33 | ||
| 34 | OPTIONS | |
| 35 | ------- | |
| 36 | --config=<config>:: | |
| 37 | Use the given config variable as a multi-valued list storing | |
| 38 | absolute path names. Iterate on that list of paths to run | |
| 39 | the given arguments. | |
| 40 | + | |
| 41 | These config values are loaded from system, global, and local Git config, | |
| 42 | as available. If `git for-each-repo` is run in a directory that is not a | |
| 43 | Git repository, then only the system and global config is used. | |
| 44 | ||
| 45 | ||
| 46 | SUBPROCESS BEHAVIOR | |
| 47 | ------------------- | |
| 48 | ||
| 49 | If any `git -C <repo> <arguments>` subprocess returns a non-zero exit code, | |
| 50 | then the `git for-each-repo` process returns that exit code without running | |
| 51 | more subprocesses. | |
| 52 | ||
| 53 | Each `git -C <repo> <arguments>` subprocess inherits the standard file | |
| 54 | descriptors `stdin`, `stdout`, and `stderr`. | |
