Group-Git

The group-git tool allows you perform operations on many git repositories at once. For example updating many repositores with the latest upstream code:

bash $ group-git pull

Would update all git repositories in the current directory.

Several git comands have some extras such as status which adds the --quiet parameter which will suppress output for repositories with not changes.

There are also tool to help with various git repository servers such as

• Github
• Bitbucket Server (nee Stash)
• Gitosis

Repository Helpers

These helpers allow you to store your credentials in a group-git.yml configuration file and will find all repositories you have access to. If you use the group-git pull command it will automatically clone any repository not currently downloaded for you.

Tagging repositories

You can also tag repositories to limit opperations to a subset of available repositories. There are 3 ways to tag repositories:

• Add a tag file(s) to the root of the repository (eg `.my-tag.tag>)
• Use a tagger library, Group::Git comes with two, remore and local which determine if the repository has a remote or not.
• The Bitbucket server helper will tag repositories with their project.

Extending with your own commands

Group::Git looks for commands in the perl modules path Group::Git::Cmd and it look in the path for any command in the form of group-git-cmd or git-cmd as well as supoorting all the built in git commands. If you want perform an operation you can write your own script put it your path and Group::Git will find it execute it the same was git would.
